Default I Broke something when installing ls6 intake

While I was yanking on things i ended up breaking a part on the Evaporator Emission Canister Purge Solenoid Valve. I am wondering whether or not i need to replace this because Im hoping its just an emission part. I took a couple pics of where i broke this. This part is clipped to the manifold itself. What do you guys think?. Remember i just broke where that small line is not the whole thing

The part is cheap from the dealer - like $15 if I remember correctly. It's oK to run for a while with it broken until you get a new one.

it sends fuel vapors into the intake manifold.

my evap canister was ticking like a **** a few months ago. $30 at the dealer and it took 5 min to swap
