If you ask me, the IMS designer should have put a pin hole at the other end of the IMS shaft to allow for pressure equalization.
The best way to do it is the same method the LN IMS Solution uses, a freeze plug inserted into the shaft with some Loctite sealant on it. Just make sure it is far enough into the shaft to not interfere with the IMS, but not so far it creates a cavity.
