I have no idea, but is the air intake pipe for the compressor. I think I read somewhere that it is higher up to prevent water getting sucked in.
As I say this is a wild guess, but I thought I read something about it somewhere.

In that case it probably fell off a BMW X5 which attempted to go off road.

Hmm, very interesting. 
I had exactly the same thing fall out from behind my right rear mudflap when I was giving my D3 a thorough
washing (with tank water, for my fellow Melbournites) when I got my D3 back from the Kimbertey in August.
I just thought it was something to do with the mudflap. 
Should I PANIC

There is a drain tube visible around the near side front wheel arch I seem to recall. Could be that. But I'm sure its a clear one not black.
