Cracked crankcase breather tube on a Honda Reflex

I think that most of these puke tubes are on the FILTERED side so your engine is probably sucking unfiltered air.

The tube is just releasing crud deposits through the crankcase breather into the bottom of the air box. Considering that engine breathers ran open for decades it really isn't a big deal. Exhaust blow white in cold weather anyway so it might just be that you're paying attention to it and seeing it. That hose being open or cracked won't change the way an engine runs.
