it goes to the bpv....
let me guess, it dried out in the area where it goes next to the engine?? happened to mine the day i bought the car (used).
The bpv won't function without it, so no hard shifts under turbo.
If you are under warranty I'm sure it is covered, if not, the hose should be like $10-$11 at the dealer.

I just changed my vaccum hoses on the valve to isolate a problem I was having.
Wait.. explain which hose?? the big one going to the airbox then turbo? take note I move my valve over behind the headlight. Yours will be near the turbo.

No, thats not it. This goes from the BPV to the intake. I'm concerned that this will make my engine run rich since it will not be putting the air back into the system.
