Wrap the file resource in an if that checks if $conf_file is defined.
I would also recommend replacing the case statement with a
parametrized class with the default for $conf_file being undef.
Also, if you were okay with having a default blank file present then
you could just replace your current case statement with a list to the
file source attribute:
file { "/path/to/my/file":
source => [
"/modules/nfs/files/file.$host",
"/modules/nfs/files/file"
]
}
