I broke a vacuum line the other day, a good temporary fix would be to get some electrical shrink wrap and heat it so it seals onto the vacuum line, then get some spiral wrap to put around it to add some rigidity.

Glue it back on with 2 part epoxy. Make sure the hole is open.
Ya could go to the junk yard and get another one.
