   Its a breather pipe, mine is exactly the same but it looks to me if somebody as used a different bit of pipe as it should have a push over bit with the yellow clip.

   Looks factory to me, can't you just slice the last inch of the rubber cable off and re connect again it or it is the plasticy bit thats snapped?

   Oh well, scrappers then eh. Btw you can rmove and reconnect those metal clips on the pipes with a bit of patience
