Looks like you SAI (secondary air injection) line. I can't imagine that water is a good thing.

Default secondary air injection breather>>>

filter is not on everyone's car....if water got into the pump, it could spit it out when running.....could warrant a cleaning and rebuild of pump in spring which is easy....
