I have a hole somewhere in my ductwork. I have a single wide with a single duct down the center of the house. Do i just cut a hole and peek up in there thru the vapor barrier? What materials do I use to fix any leaks?

I don't know if this helps to answer my question. I got up under my house and figured out what the problem was. I had water leaking near or in the duct at one time. The duct has broken off from a register about 1/3 of the way across the house but fairly close to the furnace in the closet. It is that fiberboard ducting shaped like a square. I am not sure what type of materials I need to try to patch it? Should I think about replacing it with something?
