It is from a manual!
It is from a syncro only!
It is just a breather!
The hose attached to the white peace that broke goes to just above the fuel tank and ends.
The end of that hose goes to nothing its just a vent!
It has no affect on anything unless you are maybe fording rivers 3 deep or more!
No need to replace it!!! other than to keep crap from going down into that space just use a two wheel drive plug or anything else that will work!!!

Subject: Re: Mystery part

If I had to say, I'd say it's a non-stock VW part installed by a
 previous
owner. Of course, if you are the only owner, then I'm wrong. ETKA only
 shows
a cover cap that is supposed to go there (PN 025101109B). What in the
 world
does that hose go to? I've never seen a hose going to that hole, but
 then
again, I am by far the expert. The hole is there to access the bolts
 that
hold the plate(don't know tech name) to the torque converter. I just
 used it
the other day for that purpose!
