Gorilla superglue will hold anything....i've used it to hold lots of plastic stuff together. If not that, put up a WTB in the classifieds and try to get ahold of another intake from another member

The nipple that holds the breather tube? Go to the dealership and get it warrantied. I had mine break off too.

Seal it off on the intake or your fuel trims will be way out of whack with all the unmetered air being sucked in. Fuel trims will go off themap, run like **** and hello CEL!
