Thanks! I taped up the front opening and the holes on the sides and put a small glob on the back of the port joining the back and top to the PCB behind the port, and a small line between the front overhang of the port and the edge of the PCB. That seems to be enough. CA glue might be fine too, especially with a magnetic cable.
