A hex nut and probe?
Drill the hole, stick probe through, put nut on, tighten.
No?

I just looked at mine and apparently you have to remove the back cap and drill a 2.5" hole then insert the front and screw the back on from inside. Does that make sense? Try to take the back off, unscrew it.
Post a pic of the back, they may have changed the design and mine is a crappy design.

You gotta just trace those cutouts and cut them (slightly smaller so when closed, no leaks)... drill, attach.

If you don't want that stack sticking out of the side, have a friend cut it at the angle and weld it either back on the flange or weld it to the top of the smoker. Side or top will work fine, even Stumps smokers have side exhaust. It's only$5325.00
Don't put a damper on my fun! 
I was looking at dampers and I think this side vent would be perfect! Easier hole to cut as well.

Why you adding to the Franken Smoker when he bought parts?
That's the same thing I have. I just guessed on the hole size because I didn't take it off.
Just return it and get that type. I wouldn't want to go drilling any unique sized holes in my smoker, let's say the thing sucks... then you have that size hole.
Well get that done so we can smoke ribs this weekend!!!
