The problem is more likely to be outside Puppet than inside. Something has been changed on the node so that Facter no longer computes the 'osfamily' fact correctly. That probably means it also does not compute the 'operatingsystem' fact correctly. It might be illuminating to insert one or more Notify resources into your manifests to tell you what values the problem node is actually reporting for those facts. Looking at the Facter source, however, it seems pretty likely that the problem revolves around the file /etc/debian_version having been removed from the node.
