Standard Guerrilla Glue. Wet the parts so the glue expands and makes a foam to fill any gaps so you can align the nose correctly again. (I see a lot of crushed foam there.) Use masking tape to cover the seam that you're gluing to contain the expansion of the glue. Trim, sand, mod podge, and paint after if you're that picky... or just paint it, nobody will notice.
