Fuel filter housing problem

Hello guys. I stripped the threads or cracked the top of my fuel filter housing on my '99. There are none available in the US until after June 12th so I have to do something else now. I actually got a hold of one off a 2001 but the plugs for the heater elements are different. If there a way I can rewire it? Does anyone have 99 they want to sell? It is either this or I just order a Fass system. any help would be aprreciated. Thanks

I did the same thing on mine, over tightened the plug on top and cracked it, thank Josh for JB Weld, i used it and it is still holding after 2 months.
Give it a shot, it might work.

You could do without the fuel heater for a few more months now that it is summer.
