Help what is this, How to fix?
Just noticed this is cracked. What is it? How hard is it to fix? What is part number and cost? Any advice would be helpful.
Thanks.

I think its a part of your pcv plumbing. Probably inexpensive at NAPA and simple to replace. A vacuum leak causes headaches.

PCV connection to the intake manifold.
YES, it will get worse and YES it will cause a bad vacuum leak. You have to get the entire thing from the dealer but you can cobble in a piece of vacuum line.

I had to replace the whole assembly. All the hoses/elbows were disinegrating/collapsing.
