Covering elevator with trim tab

[8708]

Hi folks,
I am covering my elevators and am wondering about covering the small lubrication hole for the trim tab mechanism?
It looks like it would be pretty much out of the weather but would still be an opening that water could get into.
So do you you think I should cover it and perhaps put a sea plane grommet over it or just leave it open so it can be accessed easily?
Thanks!
Jay

Open , then I put a smear of grease after lubing it once in a while
