There's two pics addressing your issue.


You can get small vacuum house at O'reilly's to mend that tube.

There should be a small black stub tube (other half of the broken tube in your pic) that goes into the firewall, then to a quick disconnect behind the glove box, then to the mode selector on the climate control panel.


See if the stub is there. If it is and there's enough left, use a rubber hose to connect the two tubes (see pic in my link).


If there's only a small piece sticking out, see if you can grab it with needle nose pliers and pull it out enough to fit the rubber hose.


Your XJ may not have the check valve, as shown in my pic.
