Default WTF is this Pipe for??

Hi guys, i recently had a problem with my focus starting, took it to ford and got it fixed, or so they tell me...
But anyways, while goin through a routine oil check and other fluids, i noticed that this pipe running between the top right hand corner of the valve cover and into the airbox (pre-filter area) was disconnected at the valve cover. I knew where it went, because ive seen it there and always wondered WTF its for.
I did find oil secretions across the engine bay which it seems obviously came from the valve cover and piping when it was d/c, but now im wondering, should i be concerned because its been d/c and i dont know for how long and a whole load of gunk n crap could have found its way into the cams and springs.

The weird thing is also that the piping seems to go into the airbox, but pre filter... doesnt make sense....

ANy insight would be appreciated.

Tom
