Blocking the MAC address using a spare PC is only going to stop that MAC
address from accessing the spare PC. You need to use access controls on
your switches to deal with this problem
If you do want to use the spare PC to block access from a given address to
your LAN, you'll:
1) need to alter the MAC tables to null-route the address, or the like
2) be building a firewall, which you've said that you don't want
