Vacuum canister leak

A 1995 F150 has a vacuum leak from a small hole in the metal vacuum canister from a hose clamp laying on it.

Is there a place I can get a new canister other than a dealer?

Are plastic ones available? Are they perfered to the metal ones?

Will some kind of patch work or just replace it?

A little solder, a little heat, problem solved!

I got a plastic one off of a 1999+ f250 superduty and it bolted up to my inner fender with the same holes.
