crank case breather!  never bought one but should be a few quid.  I'd suggest you cut it down first before you shell out any money.

also there is another cable under those 4 pipes: the one with the silver clip on (left of picture).  That should not be there.  The silver clip is designed to hold that cable under the scuttle.  you can see the scratch marks above it on the plastic where it should be clipped.

Commonly known as a J pipe.
Can't remember the price though Danny, best held onto the breather box with a small cable tie.

The three larger hoses should all have clips to secure them as seen in the middle two images below:

Yes originally fitted with metal clips but much easier/cheaper to replace with cable ties once you've taken them off.
TBH the hoses normally stay on the breather box of their own accord, cable ties are just to ensure a good seal.
