   If your really stuck then go direct to Citroen but expect to pay a little bit extra.

   yea the car will run fine with it snaped just might spray a mist of oil over everything. can get messy in time so dont leave it too long..
   
   i would just take the snaped bit off, cut it right back and fit a breather filter over it. doese the job and looks alot better
