Ive just changed the oil and filters on the FFRR and I noticed an inline filter attached to a pipe, fixed just behind the fuel filter. The strange thing is, there's nothing connected to the other side of it.
It appears to be coming from underneath the cam cover, so I'm assuming it's a breather of some description. However, I've found a further two stray pipes just hanging around nearby, which has got me wondering if there's something missing that connects all three? 2010 MY Vogue SE TDV8 3.6 Stornoway Grey- fully loaded

It's a breather for the gearbox

Is it not the crankcase breather? My Previous RR's!

No, it's for the gearbox and only connected at one end

as long as thats how it should be, I'm not bothered!
