What is this split hose?

Yes it's most likely the brake vacuum pump. For me it was leaking and made a hole in the casing. I replaced my seals just yesterday.
As far as I know, you can't buy OEM seals and you normally have to replace the whole unit. However if you look on ebay you can find some seals.

Here's a video I followed:

The oem pump is expensive as f*ck but you can go with a Pierburg aftermarket unit. Here they retail for about $180 each. Or you can get an ebay pump seal rebuild kit and try your luck with that. You take the pump apart and change the seals. I went with a used pump but that started leaking too so I'll be buying a Pierburg pump later on.
