It is the connection and pipe that goes to a boost gauge (if you have one).

Therefore whenever you are making boost there is a hiss of air.

Fix....errr cut off the split and put it back on.... ;-)

Id change that thicker pipe at the top of the pic if i was you.
Its the pipe that goes from the brake servo to the uim and it looks awfully cracked, i had one just like that but i changed mine soon as i lost all assisted braking and almost slamed into a truck infront at 30mph, so be like i say, id change that mate :)
