930 Aluminium vacuum pipe stub

Hi there
I have inadvertently removed an aluminium vacuum pipe stub from the inlet manifold area. I was prizing off the vacuum hose and the aluminium stub came off with it. You can see in the photos the pipe inserted and removed. The pipe is a good push fit and there is some evidence that it has been removed by accident before - there is what appears to be a light green transparent "glue" material in the hole where the pipe locates. It is also clear that if it had popped out before, no effort was made to key the surface of the aluminium. I would like to know if anyone has experienced this and what method of adhesion I should use for a good seal and permanent adhesive fix.
All thoughts are most welcome
Peter

JB weld should work fine. Make sure you have it oriented (clocked) properly, as you will not be able to move after it cures.

I used JB weld on my pipe () over 10 years ago - still looks like I just a applied it and sealed perfectly (and have had the hose on and off many times since - no problems).
