Default Is it normal to get loose like that?

I'm referring to my R's oil dipstick little pipe. It move left to right but doesn't come off easily. Has this happened to someone else and how to tight it up in place again?

Thanks for the link!
But in case you cannot get Hondabond right away, can you use the black RTV silicon sealant? This is what is used for high temp too. I'll try with that now coz that's what I have on hand. I'll post results later...
Also, Permatex black RTV is cheaper than Hondabond too

Haha! I have the same problem, have for two months now. It's too cold for JB Weld, especially since I have to drive the car daily. I guess I could JB it at the bodyshop before the take it for two weeks.
