MEK not working on this old piece (3144) any recommendations?

I don't even know what I'm looking at. But considering the age I'm not surprised.

It’s an antenna (part 3144). It’s a softer plastic than all the other parts, similar to the old plumes - which is why I’m guessing the MEK won’t stick it back together.

Yes, MEK does not work on some of the softer plastics. I had problems with rigid tubes, I ended up just superglueing the specific connection

hair dryer and gently bend into shape, thermal gun(the kind that you use to strip paint) if that doesn’t work

I would handle that piece with care... Beside the crack it looks in rather good shape.
