Thats the engine breather, and yes in theory it could affect performance.
I'm not sure how much they are at a main dealer. You could also search ebay for anyone else that is breaking a vr6.

Airflow readings are calculated by the ecu with the breather working.

The ecu relies on the airflow meter amongst other things to calculate the fuel/air mixture, the crankcase ventilation is further downstream, so if it is not functioning correctly then the ecu will not calculate it correctly, as the extra burnt gasses are taken into account.
This can cause problems, such as the throttle response feeling a bit flat.
I had a problem similar on my A8 a few months back. The main engine breather had collapsed, i couldn't believe the improvement when i replaced the hose.
