[Peugeot-L] Identifying a component and it's function - 505 V6

Hi all, I wanted to know about a certain component on my V6 motor. Let me try to describe it: Just before the air filter box is another plastic sort of Y shaped box with a plastic flap and what looks like a temperature or some other type of sensor. It has an aluminium flex-hose (at least what's left of it) on the other end What is it, and what does it do? If it had a huge hole melted in the side (as mine does) and make it completely ineffective would it affect the performance of the car? (I'm still desperately trying to find the source of my poor low rpm idle).    

  Thanks in advance,
