Same here about 2 months ago. Don’t plan on changing it.

  • Cut both ends evenly
  • Clean with alcohol.
  • Apply gorilla glue
  • Let dry and bond
  • Then apply some E6000 on the outside.
Or buy a new one.

A gaggle of MB's
Two words - "Clip It" - since you have the cap holder in the fuel filler door - frankly the retainer line is not necessary really..

I think there is no sense to fix it.
New genuine part (filler cap for diesel A2224700105) cost around 25-30Euro. So...
