Exclamation Airflow housing broken and drop INSIDE!!!!!!

Was gonna to take the airflow to have a clean, when I unplugged it I felt weird why it a bit sticky...and I was SHOCKED, a flip of the airflow is GONE!!!!!!!!!!!!
And it has to be gone inside!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Anyway I got some throttle codes btw, they are P1109, P1514, any advise guys? Are they relative? Thanks

I'm having trouble understanding your post.

It looks like the clip for the mass air flow meter plug is broken? You think it managed to get into the intake?

P1109 could be caused by a dirty/non-working air flow meter. Could also be a bad connection because that plug is broken. I would suggest you replace it with a new MAF instead of cleaning it. If you so some searching you can find a post where you can check the voltages your MAF should be putting out. This might help you diagnose the connector too.

I think P1514 has something to do with a mechanical throttle stop....could that plastic piece be blocking the throttle body? Maybe you can pop off the intercooler hoses and remove the y-pipe connected to the throttle body to look for any foreign pieces of plastic?

Sorry for misunderstanding, please take a close look on the airflow picture, it suppose to have something cover the copper wire inside, but it GONE, attached is the comparison of my another airflow picture.

I have another airflow and probably will try to use it to see if the same code pop up. But for the plug, how can I replace it?

And yes, I do think the airflow broken part MUST dropped into intake.

can only go to either side of the intake and hit the turbo. most likely disentigrated when it impacted the turbine wheel. pull the intake piping off each turbo and take a look for debris.

Intercoolers likely caught a bunch of it, I'd flush those for sure.
