Not familiar with your model but the thing in your hand looks like a PVC tube. Takes oily combustion from the bottom of the engine block and redirects it into the intake to be combusted again.

Yeah, normal of then to get oily, I replace the one on my car every twenty thousand miles or so.

what year is your car? fuel injected? you have an air filter in the front of the engine?

I think thats what it is and does.
