Fuel line came off rail clip-damaged but no leak

Been awhile since I've had to post. Want to get some opinions. So the other night my fuel line came off the rear clip & was hitting my transmission "knuckle"..to be honest I thought it was a stick. I even stopped several times but could not see anything so (mistake--but I was in dress clothes too) kept going. Well now I see that it is damaged but not leaking. What would you guys recommend?

That's an evap line for emissions. It doesn't contain pressurized fuel. If you're on a budget you could just epoxy that spot to limit fumes leaking out, or new they are $74:

UPDATE: Fuel evap line -damaged but no leak

Used JB Weld Steel Stik to mold around damage..turned out pretty decent.
