It looks like it broke off the closest vac sensor. The hose appears to have the plastic tip still stuck inside. Look over the sensors for a small hole near where the other hoses are attached. You may need to replace the sensor. Left unattended expect a check engine light to come on.

CHECK the line for vacuum. No vacuum? could be a vent. Since some vents oe vacuums are progressive so you may not be able to tell what it is unless the RPMs are up around 2500.
