Easiest way I have heard to fix this would be to get a used one off another Mustang. Don't think JB Weld will be able to handle the heat, but I would think welding would work as long as there are no leaks. What made it break in the first place? Did it rot out or something?

yea i was just driving code came on took my scanner checked it looked over on bank 2 removed my air box and their it was hanging on by a thread completely off i have checkd parts stores no luck so im going to phone ford tomorrow if they dont have it or if its really expensive ill weld it at school i know most of these are a bitch to remove because of how easy they rust or would exhaust epoxy work their is one i found good up to 2000 degrees

Depending on where it broke will determine if you can fix it or not. The ends are a swivel fitting so you can tighen it,m without rotating the entire tube.

Could always try an EGR delete. You will need to turn this off in a tune and this will affect emissions testing and mpg. Personally I don't advocate this, but it is an option.
