yes it could be the breather pipe under the manifolds, if it is split the engine will race and will be rough as hell when driving.Fairly easy to replace if you have the correct long nose pliers with a tube grip on the end. It could also be the throttle linkage sticky and not reseating itself correctly, or the same with the throttle valve..
I had one blown off when my Fiesta once failed to start first time, and blew back through the intake. Just had to push it back on and stick a (very tight) cable tie round it.
