That usually breaks when someone either does a sludge repair or removes the valve cover gasket. It has to do with the PCV system, but i don't know the exact name, who cares, replace it.

its a breather hose. not a big deal. fix it and be done. i went to the dealer and got a new one. easy install. new one was flexible, old one was brittle.
