    Vacuum caps are available at Your local auto parts store. pull your hose off and just install correct size cap on the pipe. HTH

    If you can't get to the store, cut the pipe 1" from the boot, find a bolt that fits snug into the pipe & wrap it with a cable tie.

    Duct tape. Or that clear box tape, or connect a short hose from 3 to 4.
    Call Mc Guyver !
