hi all,
i broke the mounting lug on mine the same way. it has been on the bike as is for 1000's of miles now with no adverse effects.
i wouldn;t bother with a new one if i were you, just as long as the housing is still air tight when sealed.

ah right well i spose it wont have that much of an effect as tank is on top. the airfilter hasnt been changed for like 14k miles or more so want to get a new one of them banged in asap and one of the sealing nuts got damaged in a drilling incident so it may not be totally airtight, but it has ran pretty d**n good for many miles despite these lil issues.

mine has the mounting bracket snapped, and the front most securing bolt in the middle has snapped all around the plastic. But when its done up its as good as ever,
So like i said, if one comes along then get it by all means, i know of 2-3 on ebay at the min, but i wouldn;t bother especially, The amount my tank has been off the last few months would have been a perfect time to change it, but like so many other jobs it was put on the later pile.
cheers
