Uhhh... MacGyver Needed

So I found the source of my vacuum leak, it seems the vacuum tee on the driver's side with windshield washer lines running from it has a broken barb. ( or nipple however you want to call it) It seems the previous owner covered it in electrical tape to stop the leak but its not working. When I open the bypass valve with the engine off, I can hear air leaking out of the tape. Any suggestions to plug the thing up? Probably would just be temporary until I can get one off a parts car.
Thanks,
Phil
 
I'm pretty sure

That the "Help" section at most auto parts stores has a selection of "T's" and the rubber caps for blocking off unused branches.

I had the same thing happen to mine.... picked up 2 Ts from a local parts store and fixed it no problem. Mine has 3 vacuum lines and 3 washer lines in that thing so 2 Ts should work fine without the need for caps.
