Seems like a more pliable boot with a hose clamp type fitting would be the long term fix.

From the pics above, it looks like the boot is made of rigid plastic and would be more prone to breaking loose because of the flexing involved.

The first pic looks like it has an o-ring on the male side (the boot) that would snap into the female side of the bump stop...it looks worn out IMO.
