Looks like your front diff breather.
That stem looks like what is in the back of the diff.
Should connect to up top to this. Just one not 4 like in my picture.
Just find the hole in the diff and put it back in.
Assuming I am right. LOL.

Ralph is correct on what it is. I don't remember what type of fitting it uses but yours I see no threads or shoulder.Kind of looks like a pipe was used to splice the hose back together.

The one on my WJ just presses into the hole and snow will pull it out once in a while. I just threaded the hole, 1/4" pipe I think, and used a brass fitting and clamped hose. All it does is equalize the air pressure when the diff gets hot and keeps water out.
