Default Mysterious box under Jeep?

So I was under Jeep yesterday and seen this box located drivers side under about the rear seat, I have a broken hose coming out of it and looks like it leads to fuel tank? Does anyone know what this box is and how important this hose is since it is snapped off at the box and not sure how to fix without replacing box? I'm thinking emissions related but no codes are popping up. Thanks for any ideas.
