T-5 Breather?

Well to make a long story short I did a clutch job and took my tranny to my mechanic to get looked at ( the little guy is goin on 225k+ miles so I figure why not right?) Anyways they have been swamped and havnet gotten around to it. After Christmas I have to drive back down to school so I need to get that tranny back into my car. Picked up the tranny today and now I notice that the breather for the trans is broke! I can't find a part number or anyway to get this fixed. No one at any autoparts story has an idea either. I have decided that if I can find a way to limp along for maybe a month or two ( I only drive home every other weekend usually so I dont have to put alot of miles on the car) Then afterwards take the trans back to my mechanic. I did ntoice that a lot of the used trans I saw on ebay and other sites do not always have this breather? COuld running without it totally ruin the trans? Any help is GREATLY appreciated. I always come here lookin for some good advice and opinions and ya'll havnet let me down yet!

The earlier ones (maybe all of the phase I) just had a short breather, about 1¼" in height.
I dunno if those can be swapped in a phase II or not.
