Default what to do with radiator hose???

yesterday my 99 z28 dumped almost all of the coolant on the parking lot of dairy queen. it was dark so i couldnt see the problem. i poured water in it and it too spilt to the ground. with a flashlight i could see right under the radiator cap was a hose dangling with a sensor attached. i dont know what hose this is but it came off and the coolant went everywhere. i managed to attach it again but should i be worried about it coming off again? should i get a new one? and what hose is that bcuz i cant find the name anywhere? thanks for your time

Yeah new clamp? Maybe the cap is really weak? When's the last time it had a good flush?
