Radiator pipe, glue or replace?

Hi, during a recent trip of around 500 miles I heard a long air whine while driving alone, upon inspection I have a split of about 1 cm in the orange rubber tube coming from the left of the radiator, the split in on the side of the knobbly bit of tubing, is it worth trying to glue it with something? or should I replace the whole tube?

Any ideas?

Thanks

red pipe sounds like intercooler pipe for turbo so it would be better to source a new /second hand 1 hope this helps

Anyone know the cheapest place to try? all the places I have found are extortionate for a piece of rubber tube
