I have not got around to actually fixing the broken nipple. But I will be going to the hydrolic place and see if they have a small brass fitting maybe, I need to get a bolt drill a hole and solder a pipe into it.

Or drill hole same as the hose and use some RTV sealant to keep it in place
that hose fitting is what I am thinking of using and hopefully be able to put a nut on the inside of the plastic intake.
thanks for the link.
The hose from the air tube near the guard to the wired sender, and from the wired sender to the filtered side of the airbox are your "air filter service" sensor.
It measures the difference in air pressure between the the filtered and unfiltered sides of the air cleaner - and lights a warning light on the dash if your air filter is blocked.
It is not part of the "pollution control" or ECU for the fuel system - simply a warning light.
To repair the broken nipple, get an old pushbike cable gland (the adjuster part on the bikes brakes or gears that the cable runs through), or a tubeless tyre valve rubber.
Drill the appropriate size hole and bolt in the cable gland with a nut either side and some silicone to help it seal. Fit vacuum hose and your away.
If you use a tyre valve, you'll need to reduce the stem diameter down with some vac hose over the outer stem and the outer original vac hose. Super glue will hold it together if it fits but isn't grippy.
