That sucks.

You can take the snout off and drill and tap that for a barb X NPT fitting.

Yeah, I guess that's an option, it looks like the piece of tube was just glued in there. Honestly it wasn't that hard of a hit, I expected it to be bent but it came out really easy.

I could see throwing a wrench at it doing that, but dropping a wrench? Cheaply made?!?

I think that is just a press fit style vacuum port. I would ask blownchevy, he would know. If it is press-fit and you could get the broken part out you could put a new one in.

X2 drill and tap with NPT for best results, but they are just pressed in with some sealant. At least that's the case on the syclone. I know from experience lol.
