What is this part called

My mechanic broke off the little stem that you connect the hose to.

That's a blow off valve. You have the weak plastic one. Just replace it with a metal one from the Evo IX and call it a day.

Please do not take this the wrong way but why are you letting a mechanic work on your car if he does not even know what a diverter valve is?

Yes, take everyone's advise and replace that leaking plastic piece with the IX metal one. I've got one I've been meaning to list for over a year now...pm me if you're interested
