Unload filament, got tube?

Hi, when I unloaded the filament I got a bit of what I think is the internal tube:

Is this a problem? How can I fix it?

Thanks

Topic starter answered:
From sensor after all

Correction. The tube is after all from the sensor.
Seems to be the same problem as:

does it really matter ?

Hi just wondering does this really matter or are people concerned if the tube isn't there the housing will rub against the filament? 

reason I ask is I have some mini's some with and without but haven't noticed any difference.

Sensore tubing

The sensor tubing on the mini can be longer.  Length is not an issue.
