I can cap that off and I can cap off the line coming into the boat. I only broke off half of the nipple but my biggest concern is if the clamp comes off then I have an issue with water getting into the lower unit. I did come up with an idea to fix the nipple. If I could find a peice of tubing like a small break line I could cut it so it goes down into the remainder of what broke off and into the peice that I broke off. I could clean out the nipple section of all oil and maybe epxoy them in place using the tubing for strength.
