Look, if corn and kudzu fall in love and have a baby in a lab under the supervision of scientists working in my employ, WHO AM I TO STOP THAT other than the CEO responsible for stopping it???

The same thing happened to me.  I completely removed the broken check valve and pressed in a piece of tubing where the check valve used to fit and just used an inline one way check valve that I had from a toyota.  Worked great and I haven't had any issues.
