I was cleaning the EGR on my NB, and managed to break one of the nipples off of the vacuum solenoid.
For reference, it is this part:http://www.ebay.com/itm/like/151350904153?lpid=82&chn=ps

So now I'm stranded at the house, and this isn't something that's carried at my local auto chains. Is it OK to drive the car with this broken, at least 10 miles to get to my Acura? Obviously, it'll pull a CEL, but should the car drive safely for that amount of time?
If I had crazy glue, I'd attempt to fix it, whilst ordering a new one.
