Default I need some advice on my charcol canister. mouse chewed a hole in it!!

OK, go here: https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=438230 Look at the pic, under the 50. the big round canister. On top of that, a mouse chewed a hole it in, my CEL is now on, and I don't want to have to pay $150 for a new one. Does anyone have some advice, or maybe a cheap one for me? By the way, its a 2000 civic LX.

Go to a junkyard. Got mine for $5 and it's not exactly a "Hot Ticket" item like rear disks.

If I didn't have time to go to the junk yard, do you think I can just plug it up? Or will it be too hard to get a good seal to make the CEL go away? Am I better off just getting a new one from a junk yard? I was thinking about using a plug and covering the hole, but im worried about leakage. Any other advice would be help full.
