Pics would really help with this... But please start a thread for this issue, as this is a welcome area..
And Welcome!

It's an evap vent connection, apparently the one near the front of the tank. What broke off, and do you have a clearer pic of it? I believe these are plastic welded into the tank and are not easily replaceable.
Note that the evap lines DO NOT need to be removed from the FF tank when dropping it. Just the three evap canister connections and the rear connection at the canister vent valve. The fuel lines near the frame rail do need to be snapped out of their support clips, as well as released from the pump.
EDIT: the evap vent that's circled in this pic? Flex Fuel (FF) tank shown:
