Unknown Pipe (need help)

hi all,
i recently installed the GFB DV+ onto my BMW f30 (n20) and I think I cracked the pipe inside this rubber pipe when I was moving it but I cannot find what the name of the pipe is anywhere online to replace it. is anyone aware of this name of it (its the one connected to the top of the turbo inlet pipe)

I believe it's part of the crankcase ventilation system. I haven't heard of anyone breaking one.

do you what the inside pipe is made of because it sounds like a brittle plastic that's why I think I have broken/cracked it. does it affect the performance of the car at all if it is broken?

It's plastic surrounded by foam. You don't want it leaking if it's cracked.

It breaks during DV/inlet install all the time. After a few years and some miles it becomes brittle just like all the other plastic.

You need to fix it if it is leaking

Happened to me as well when changing the turbo, very common to break as it’s plastic and becomes brittle
