Broke transmission cooler line going into the radiator

Replacing my radiator today and what I most feared might happen just did. When I was trying to get the cooler line out of the radiator I accidentally snapped it. It's the one going into the top. Any suggestions on what I can do now? Can I temporarily fix it by connecting a hose to the two ends and clamp it up for now? I'm going to replace the line, but not sure I'll have time today to do that. Plus, I would need something pre bent and probably only the dealer could help me with that and I basically won't have a vehicle to use until my wife gets home later. Anyway, any suggestions would be appreciated! Thanks.
