It is not pretty, but you can drill holes either side of the crack along the length of it. And then stitch it with wire or zip ties.

just finished gluing with rapid-fix,I think it's going to work.I've done some repairs with it before with amazing results,including a lower radiator hose nozzle on a kubota tractor.Broke again after 4 years,reglued and it's been good for over a year now.I will post results!

Another option is E6000 glue, just use on backside with a layer of mesh either pet screen or screen door plastic/aluminum mesh. I have been using for years to either repair tracks ( basically adding height) or when I cut off paddles and went into the fiberglass core slightly. I use it on lawn mowers etc... Comes in Black or clear. Acts like silicon but is paintable if needed. Tap plastics and Home Depot finally sells it. Mike
