I have a small gap between two areas of guttering and I'd like to cover in. In doesn't really serve any purpose and it lets the weather in. Is there a product I can buy to do this or do I need to measure it up and get a sheet metal company to custom make something?
Here is the gap in question.

G'day,
I'd get a custom piece of colorbond bent up with the colour on the underside, sort of like a ridge capping but a bit more girth to it. Stratco can bend up what you need if you go down that track.
Take a few measurements and your picture and they'll sort it, a few rivets into the gutter is all it'd need. The profile of the piece will be rigid enough to stop it form flexing. If you want light, i think you can get polycarb type material bent as well.

100%
i would use a smaller company that folds flashings onsite as they often can do next day turnaround & offer advice.

True, and you wouldn't see it until mid Jan from stratco now due to them shutting down, but they do usually have a good turnaround time if you order before 2pm you get it 2 days later pick up only though...

I agree but pretty sure you can get colourbond with the colour both sides as well....

You could spray the underside with colorbond touch up paint, good match for colour and sheen and wound be exposed to uv, so shouldn't blister
