Default wtf black honeycomb looking piece?

okay so apparently my car has a coolant drip.. theres a hose coming out of the firewall to some black thing thats bolted onto the firewall with a screw on top of it and it has a loop for the heater and ac control .. what is that piece and is it known to leak or something ? my car doesn't have heat right now so we're just trying to figure out wtf is going on ..

Its fine....just keep an eye on the coolant and FIX IT.

You can always just run the hoses into a loop on the back of the block too.
