I don't know of any PEX that's:

A/ Rated for steam temperatures.

B/ 1-1/2" in diameter.

I suspect that your boiler pressure is running high, because with the 1-1/2" line capped-off, your boiler is now (temporarily) way too big for the connected load.

You've got to get that 1-1/2" steel line back in.
