Default for those who still have power steering!

ok, on my 93 civic dx, i recently went to go change a bulb on the driver side headlight. my dumb *** move the power steering resevoir out of the bracket to have more room to work and when i was done i forgot to put on the bracket, so after a day of driving, the resevoir rubbed against the power steering pump, and i now have a slight crack were the steering fluid is leaking out.

now, my question is there are 2 lines running to the resevoir, can i cap the smallest of the 2? will it ruin anything?

the reason i ask is, i cant find one in the junk yard and the dealership wants $65, and the parts stores cant help, so after doing my swap(from a clip) i have a spare resevoir, but it only has 1 line running to it. and i was wondering if i can use it.

any info is helpful!

Can you glue your old one back with jb weld or something, as for the other one can you drill a hole in it and add a nipple for the other hose. I dont know what the two hoses are for exactly so I cant tell you 100% if you can cap one off.
