Can you help me identify this coolant hose that wen 💥?

This post is driving me crazy. I keep looking at these pictures and searching. I have to guess this is some sort of inline coolant filter but no filter I've seen looks like that. I find it strange. Where is that small line coming off the front of that going to? That line is really throwing me off. I wonder if this is maybe just adding additional coolant capacity??

That looks like a heat exchanger with coolant flowing and it could have oil going through it but I only see 1 line at the front. Is there a second line going off the back? And if so where do those lines go? If they are oil they are not done very well as you get 60PSI in an oil line. Anyway measure the diameter of the broken line and go get x feet at the local auto parts store and replace it. Funny why it burst there as the line does not look rotten. Last guess is an aftermarket system burper.
