Need a new hose that goes from the back of the valve cover to the intake manifold. It completely broke and I think stalled my engine yesterday and wouldn't let it start. I found a Mopar OEM part for $50 but that's a ridiculous amount of money for a tube.

Any local parts store will sell you a new one.
I fixed the one on my 87 by putting a spare piece of rubber hose over it with some hose clamps where it broke until my new one came in.

Rubber Line?
This happened to me also (my fault), I joined it back by just slipping a 3 inch piece of Rubber Hose on it.
Edit Note: I did need to take the piece coming from the intake to the Store with me. They had the proper tight fitting Rubber Vacuum line in Stock.

Junk yard (Pull-A-Part, Pick n Pull, LKQ, etc.). Depending on the yard, they may just give that to you. If not, it will only cost you a few bucks. If you're in an area that has Pick n Pull, you can search on Row52.com to see how many XJs your local yards have.

I found a new one from Crown. Sorry but this broke and almost stranded me in the Colorado mountains. I'm not going to a junkyard. I didn't break it, it broke on its own.

I've made replacements for hard vacuum lines out of aluminum fuel line and rubber "connectors". Most good parts stores will have the aluminum tubing up to 1/2" in stock.

Yep
Or it was originally Routed under the Throttle Cable In something like a Jeep that is prone to LOTS of Vibrations, Routing is of the most importance. Sharpen a stick and shove it in the Vacuum side and drive it home. EPA Emission Standards do not apply in a survival situation

I tapped it to get home. Lucky I had tape in my glovebox from electrical work I was doing. It Was rubbing on the hood release. My dads wrangler was also rubbing on one of the cables in there too. We get to replace both this weekend.

Newton's Law...
"Gravity will always mess you up", Ever try to back down a Hill with a Trailer after you realized you are not going to make it to the Top? I have! lol.
I would spray the Hood and Release Cable with Carb Cleaner and then dump a Whole LOT of 3M Yellow Adhesive to hold it in place at that particular location! lol.
I'm going to go do this just because of your post sharing this issue! Thank You!

Yeah, a roll of black tape is a good thing to carry in every vehicle.
I need to get some for my recently acquired jeep.
