What is the name of the part circled in the photo?

This part somehow went missing in my car, and I can't seem to find the name of it online to replace it. Photo is from a 2013 Subaru Forester - mine is a 2014. Thank you!

Forgot to mention it's just a cover of some sort. After it fell off, it caused an error with airflow/intake due to air leaking out of the small tube opening it was covering.

That is a vacuum fitting for an option your vehicle doesn't use. You just need a cap that fits over it. The original is just a rubber cap with a clamp on it. You should be able to find a replacement at most parts stores in with the HELP parts. The OE part number is 16142AA062 and called a Boost Cap, but any cap that fits will work, but get a clamp for it to be sure it stays on.
