It will help vent fuel vapors and excess pressure from the head back into the block. I suggest you replace it soon, but its not going to cause your engine to fail.

Its really easy to fix and the part is only a few dollars (like $5) so you mine as well replace it tomorrow. Really it can be replaced in the lot of the autoparts store.

It depends how bad its broke off in there. Do you have a photo? My guess is some finesse with some pointy-nose pliers will get it out.

If it broke like mine, it probably broke at the hose that goes into the breather box under the intake manifold. That guy is pretty hard to get to.

Clean it up, put some RTV silicone around the hole/part that slide into the hole with the o-ring, and re-install it. Dont go driving around with it like that, or you will have a pretty good oil leak.
