Default Broken hose on air cleaner

So i was taking off the air cleaner assembly when i noticed one of the two hoses connected to it had metal in it. It had broken off from the back side of the throttle body. Very very difficult to reach and clean break with the throttle body. Does anyone know what this hose is? it smells like gas...then again everything including my air flter reaks of gas. which is what i was looking into. pics to come.
