Is there a fix for this? JB weld? Silicone?

Update:
Repaired the crack with JB weld for plastic. Used a Dremel to plow a small groove along the crack to give it more bite and roughed up with 180 sand paper. Use silicone around the o-ring seal as well. Did not install until everything had cured. So far no leak. Need more heat cycles to be sure but why not try.
