Default How to get from A to B with a hole in my header primary?

Nickle sized hole in my LG header primary right on top right next to the head (where the air fitting broke off) any tips for temporary fix while I drive to W2W to get it TIG welded ? I can actually see the flame enter the primary thast how close to the head it is.

Shaner suggested cutting a coke can and and band clamping.... but it is right next to the head but so far thats my plan.
Anything else ? I would really appreciate it.....

A stainless hose clamp has kept me running in the past.

Kurt, thanks for the fast response and for offering to fit me in to get this done.
I know you guys are swamped between all the GM projects and everything else you got going. I am waiting on getting my throttlebody back from Shaner as soon as I get it I will call to make an appt I am hoping by Friday.

I thought I heard you guys manufactured C5 Headers now ?
