Assume you've a VR from your user name, so looking at your pic I think that's the plug on the top of the crankcase breather into the air intake just before the throttle body (but could be completely wrong). If so, then on uk cars this is just a dummy plug - if you unplug it you'll find it's just plastic underneath - so no need to worry about, mine's broken the same. In colder climates I think it's a connection to a heater element.

We use those in North America, this is a heater to stop the oil fumes from freezing in the intake tract in colder climates. This area causes low pressure because of the breather & proximity to the throttle body so some icing occurs. You can simply repair the wiring or ignore it if you live in a warmer area. Here's a better pic of the intake system... http://members.shaw.ca/vr6_corrado-3/VR ... Bypass.jpg
