As you can see the piece of plastic came clean off pretty much, looks like there was a piece that had a little dimple hole in it from my research, and connects to the vacuum hose above

Don't worry about it.

Did you find the broken piece?

I wouldnt worry about it but I would definitely try my best to find it and remove it from the engine.
