Alternator air duct (hub extension) fix

As I was trying to put the alternator back in, the air duct that is bolted on the back lost one of its two fins which was cracked. I searched in the catalog and found that a new one costs almost $300.

I thus improvised a way to stick the fin back on in a way that would ensure it would stay on. Here are some pix of the result:

I added some super glue in the crack for good measure.
