As an Auditor it would fully depend upon how you wrote it up, is there a written note in place as to what you intend to do, if structural has the area been designated, is their a purchase order in place or some other form of proof that you are actively working on closing it out - as in I will want to see evidence and your actions.
It might surprise you that I have had companies that did their internal audit within a week of me coming in for the sole purpose of attempting a delay and would try to snow ball me with verbal plans or inform me because they were in process on close out that I could not do a non conformance.
Bottom line, do the evidence and be ready to show proof .
Keep in mind that if the same issue appeared on previous internal aydits there is very little chance of not getting a non conformance.
