Did Coupling detatch/break - Above Oil Pan 2016 GLC 300

Wanted to get feed back and if more knowledgable people recognized this part of the engine. Have been noticing some slight oil leaks. Did change the oil (replaced copper washer) and plug and filter both seem tight. There appears to be oil residue on some of the upper pan, and I noticed what looks like a hose that has detatched and my guess is the plastic coupling may have broken. This is just above the oil drain plug and slightly forward and about 10" or so up from the bottom. Wanted to see how critical this was as well if a broken coupling. Thanks
Arrow points to where I think broken/detached coupling

You are in the wrong forum. This is for MY 2023 and newer. Your engine might be different in regard to your problem.
