It's just a plastic barb with a non removable loose cap,pull it from the hose,clean it with the blowgun and put it on a new hose

Maybe it snapped off the diff? ^^
Mine has a hose up from the diff with that loose cap un-fall-offable thingy attached to the end, topside..
Dunno bout the diff end attachment..

The nipple on the diff side is a plastic disc with hose barb that screws in the housing(got O ring on it)
The disc has a baffle over the barb hole on the inside so it matters how you screw it in,.open end has to point to the bottom when seated otherwise the baffle will act as a cup and it'll push the oil out trough the vent

Yeah, it went "Snap". So I found the 'spare' diff and un-threaded the plastic vent 'cup' assy. So now I know how to put it back. Looks like I need to mark the vent so the innards are pointed in the down direction.
