Broken hose?

Hi does any one know what this is?  Had my turbo replaces other week and mechanic said this was already broken and doesn't effect anything, the white is where he's tried to glue it back together .

I cant really tell from the pic but it could be some kind of vac hose to the abs system it looks very similar to the one on my car that was broke when I got it its a ford only part I think it cost me bout £60 odd (that's why their called stealers)
