Virus is a possible explanation, however, you have to get the plant tested to be sure.
Are the browning tips getting worse?
If not, then you can just leave as is and watch how the whole thing develops. It definitely is a deformity of some kind.
I have seen such "weird" growths on a few oncidium intergenerics at grocery stores.
If you don't like the look for whatever reason, you can just cut the whole thing off.
The older pb(s) will then sprout out some sleeping eyes.
just hope that they will grow out normally.
By the way, if you suspect virus, spraying physan 20 does not do anything.
