2010 identify part?

[Crispian]

Can anyone identify this broken connector under the hood of my 2010 Expedition? Does it have a name or part number? I can’t locate one in my manual. Photo taken from the passenger side of the engine, closer to the firewall. Thanks.

It reminds me of the pcv valve on my jeep

Put tape on it until you find part

It's the vapor canister purge valve. See this: https://www.partsgeek.com/catalog/2010/ford/expedition/air_intake/purge_valve.html

Thanks, JollyRoger! I will check out the link for the vapor cannister purge valve.

Instead of buying a whole new vapor canister purge valve for $57, I think I may try removing the end piece which is broken and repair it with JB weld. I put tape on it, but want something more permanent. Thanks.

I just puts gas fumes back into the intake, you could probably remove it.

I’m thinking that it broke at that point when the previous owner was trying to install it remove it. I can’t see how it would break any other way. I wonder what led him to try that. I think I will tape it, plug in my OBDII Scanner and see if any codes show up. Maybe there is an associated problem I need to be aware of. Thanks.

That looks like rodent damage to me. It also appears that there might be small shavings collecting just below it. I can't zoom in enough to tell for sure.

That was my impression of the picture also.

Interesting! I never would have guessed that! But it does look like gnaw marks now that you mention it. I haven’t seen any shavings, though. I’ll check for gnaw marks elsewhere. Thanks!
