If it is fixable the way I would do it is to find a small length of brake pipe,
drill both the housing and the bit that has broken off (if possible) then slide the metal pipe into both broken parts of the housing and simply use Araldite as the adhesive to hold it in place...

Or find a second hand one if you can't get one from VW.

Smaller diameter brass pipe can be found at any good hard wear stores/hobby shop if brake pipe is found to be too big.
