Hey, I need help/parts

I have a problem with a cracked intake hose/part. the part that says refer to item 7 is cracked AND the opposite end of that hose is completely split. I need help finding parts/ something that will work to seal it. I was thinking cauck on the piece itself, and a heat shrink tube placed around the end of the hose. I am unable to put on a new hose, because of the way the bend is in the hose, i am unable to get it on. If anybody has any advice, please help.

If it's an air hose, then you can use glue, electrical tape, a tie strap. This of course is a temp fix. You need a tight seal, so don't use caulk, it's messy and expands with the heat. good luck!

That hose is the left hand side cam breather, it is not vital, but you don't want air being drawn in there either. You can seal it with a Silicon Silastic sealer, or buy a new one..
