This block off plate has been installed for 8 years, but while addressing some cleaning, I figured I could maybe seal this a bit better. Do I just shove this gap full with some insulation? Any in particular? I forget what I used 8 years ago. Thanks.
Block off plate needs some gap help. Please advise.

Any insulation should be rockwool, not glass fiber (or cellulose...)
Can use silicone too for smaller gaps.

They also don't seem to make small quantities. I may run over to my dealer and ask them for a remnant sheet, unless there are some other suggestions. It seems like the smallest amount I can get from Depot is about $55.
At Amazon there are ceramic insulation blankets for less..1*1 or 2*2 ft.
Make sure it's ceramic and is fire rated
