What is it and can I buy a replacement?

I have a 91 Z28 and just replaced the fuel pump in the tank. There is a short hose coming down from the top of the tank with a white valve. The top of the valve is broke and it wont stay in place were it snaps in a bracket. I asked at Advance auto and they didnt show anything under fuel. What is this called and were can I get another one?

Thankyou!

It's a filter/check valve to allow air into the tank as fuel is pumped out. Not sure where to get a replacement, but I'd probably just strap it in place for now.
