Default vacuum PCV hose thing

i ripped this passenger-side pcv vacuum hose(runs from throttle body to back around passenger side) during my h/c swap and i was wondering if it

1. would be okay if i just plugged it up or at least tied it off to minimize the vacuum leak to get me to the parts store?.

2.what about the little electric connecter on this hose? what does it do?

3. any suggestions on how to "engineer" this short term ?? i do have an oil cap breather. no fancy pcv anything.

4. what the hell is the proper name for that hose?

thanks in advance for your replies.
