Question '91 3.9, need to find hall effect pigtail

My lovely Dakota has developed a new quirk, random ignition dropouts(with code 11), it will be running great and suddenly lose fire, then just as suddenly get it back.
Since this stuff is definitely associated with things like potholes and passenger door slams I settled in for an afternoon of poking at wiring today, after some body ground polishing and head scratching I discovered that 100% of the symptoms could be brought out by moving or even squeezing the harness-side connector for the distributor hall-effect sensor and the rest of the wiring is evidently fine.
Does anybody have a source for this little rubber plug, or am I looking at creative field expedients?
