1. Put a tube in a tubeless tire - might work but messy and a hassle.
This obviously. Tubeless ready tyres are the same as tubed tyres when you put a tube in. I carry a pair of disposable gloves to avoid any mess, which is usually exaggerated unless you run silly amounts of sealant.
It might not work in this case because of the bead damage, but the large size Dynaplug plugs would seal that top hole no problem. So I would have probably given that a shot before resorting to the hassle of removing the wheel and fitting a tube.
Tubeless actually gives you a few more roadside options.
