Do whatever is necessary to seal that tube. All air going into the engine has to go through the mass air flow sensor to be measured for proper fuel metering. Even a small leak can cause a hesitation, stumble, or hard starting.
Check the salvage yards for a replacement tube. If you're anywhere between Ohio and southern Georgia, there is a real nice chain of yards called "Pull-a-Part". You can do an internet search of their inventory to see which yards have cars like yours.
