What is a workaround to fix a vacuum leak in the power brake booster in a 2001 V6 Ford Escape XLT?

If the booster has an internal leak, there is no workaround. Replace it. If the hose is just leaking, replace the hose. Salvage yard is a good source for a used one if a new one is very expensive. Get one off a car that has not been sitting in the salvage yard very long.

Can you be able to brake with a vacuum leak in the brake booster?
If the vacuum leak is small, then yes the brake booster will still function well enough to assist the braking action. However, if the vacuum leak is very large, or if the brake booster rubber diaphragm is ruptured , then the brake booster will be inoperative and you will NOT have power assist to the brakes. It's wise to just replace the power brake booster with a new unit if there is an internal leak in it, to avoid an accident due to a loss of braking power.
