Unfortunately now the adapter came loose from the clip. So I have to wait for the new one or try to glue this one back on.
I tried epoxy and then cyanoacrylate, both without success. Don't know what Octoinkjet used.
Before any of these purge clips were made and sold this is what I used,
it was made up using Araldite epoxy adhesive and a hard plastic washer for extra strength and is still working.

Just use this.

It's just tubing stuck together with a little epoxy for good measure. You won't need the bend for purging. Just suck deionized or distilled water through the vent, and it will clean out the sponge nicely.
I had the purging clip from Octoinkjet which came loose.

What makes Araldite any better than JB Weld? Although I admit that I used the 5min version.
