Attacking my valves, and have noticed a 1 cm tear in one boot. Its throwing grease. Has anyone ever had any luck trying to put a temp. patch on the rubber?

If you must rig it, find some self vulcanizing rubber tape and wrap around the boot. It may cost you more than a boot but you will not have to take the axle off. it will last only temporary. An Electrical wholesale house should have the tape. It's also called cold fusion tape.
