Where your crack is located, you will get rainwater into the rear of the refrigerator compartment. If I were you, I'd put a piece of duct tape over the crack to help seal it from the elements. I'd aslo suggest not using the refrigerator on propane until the vent is replaced. It probably would NEVER cause a problem, but if the propane flame got "too hot" and the stars were aligned just right.... Well, you get the point, better safe than sorry.....
There are two size refrigerator roof vents so measure your to be sure you order the correct one. Also, there's no need to replace the roof mount if it's undamaged, just replace the top part of the vent. While you have it off, be sure to check the sealant (self leveling DICOR) to be sure it's intact. And as a last act, be sure to seal the 4 screw holes that you see in the roof vent. Those areas will fill with water and the screws will rust, so cover them with a shot of DICOR after everything is back together.
