A hamster shouldn't really have to be bathed, my hamster shits a lot but she doesn't ever smell bad. Perhaps you need better litter or a more ventilated cage.
You can bath any smaller rodent with a little warm water and baby shampoo (if you use a bowl instead of a cloth, never put a rodent in water that is past it's armpits). Don't squeeze or hold tight, just let him wander around and patiently put him back if he climbs out, soap up the water a little and don't put the soap directly on his fur or you'll be rinsing all day.
You can glue the piece back but then your hamster wouldn't have a cage for 24 hours while it dries, and then you would have to worry about fumes or the hamster chewing on it. Should probably just find a new type of bottle or way to attach it.
