So I've got the eagle axs wireless derailer arriving soon and was wondering what people have done about the hole in the frame that will be left when the rear mech cable is gone? Thanks dan .

Black, quick drying RTV silicone gasket sealer. Use a chopstick to poke as much into the hole as you deem necessary, then smooth it off with your finger.
 
You can use the Trek Control Freak plugs for the main-frame for the cable-holes bij the headtube, depends on the frame you have for the specific part number;

Rail 2020 (gen 1) - W519232
Rail 2022 (gen 2) - W513979

For others cable-routing point I used some stickers/tape.
For the chainstay, I removed the stock protector en put some innertube around the chainstay, helps the frame better to cope with the chainslap and as a bonus it reduced the noise.
