Question Need to Repair Fitting on Intake Manifold

I was trying to get the hose for the PCV system off of the fitting by the throttle body on the passenger side of the intake manifold. Well the barbs really hold on to the hose and I managed to separate the fitting from the manifold. It looks to me like it was held in place with a small amount of adhesive. Does anyone have any idea of the best kind of adhesive to use to glue it back in place?

From the way they go together I have no idea why they don't leak. The adhesive they used actually seemed to melt the plastic a little. I have the following on hand.

1.) Permatex RTV silicone adhesive.
2.) Lepages 2 part epoxy
3.) Loctite Super Glue

Thanks

I would us JB Weld myself. The fast dry stuff works great for oops like that.

Good luck,

Brett
