It's the throttle body heater - they do crack sometimes. Try araldite or plastic metal around where the metal tubes interference fit the throttle body - other than that you'll have to replace it. Of course it could be weak spring clips or rotted hoses.

If you get a new one dont get Britpart (my mechanic was having a real moan the other day about how poor they are).
