Can someone tell what those hose that connects to the F-hose and runs under the intake manifold is??

Is from the crankcase breather. Vents blowby to the intake manifold when the car is under vacuum. The base of the "f" is from the ACF system(fuel vapors).
Under vacuum, both fuel vapors and oil vapors merge in the f-hose and are drawn into the intake manifold and burned up.

I had a little incident with it this weekend, or I should say my father trying to help out had an incident with it this weekend. Any ideas on how to replace it and how much it might cost? I am almost scaried to ask.

I don't know if that is a good description, but thats the only way I can think of describing it.

Anyway, if it is what I think you're talking about, it was cheap - it's only a little plactic gizmo with a few plastic accordian hose things going to a collector - IIRC, it was like $50 (part only) - don't know about labor though

Thanks for the pic makes it a little more clear. I think I will take to VW Specialities and let Ron deal with it. I was just trying to figure how hard my wallet is going to get hit on this one.

And that does not include the bleeder valve and the bleeder valve rubber rubber houseing (It's the gizmo you are talking about..heheh).
Here's a picture of everything when I took it out of my car to install a new bleeder valve housing and Samco F-hose a while back.
