Oil filler breather tube disconnect during refit

Michael, at the least, get it outside of the engine bay so it doesn't  fog your engine compartment. As for what to do going forward there was just a dissertation on breather setups recently posted.

Michael,

Unless they're good buddies, I think you're going to the wrong mechanics!

I saw all the threads so far Mike and no Carl they ain't. The second one is good and they're going to take her back and address. Thinking of adding a breather box anyway? Just in case.

Gives you real confidence in the people you're taking it to if nobody's noticed a hose that doesn't plug into anything...

this hose comes off the oil filler on the gen/alt stand?  On OEM cars it just dropped down straight thru the engine tin and has a rubber nipple with slot in it.  On performance engines it often goes to a firewall mounted breather or even to tops of the carb air filter (is that what you are saying isn't drilled).  If you have crank case pressure and/or the tube is low it could blow mist of vaporized oily air.  If no real pressure - no harm done.  Picture of before/after would help.  Billet oil breathers look cool.  I like the CB one that replaces the filler cap bit (no hoses yet)

Yeah. On further inspection, someone's solution was to cut a hole in the bottom of the engine compartment and just let the tube hang through. For all the time it must have been hanging inside, it's still fairly clean so there's minor clean up. I think I'm good with the process after reading through all the threads / posts. Have a couple of cool ideas to address. I'll take before and after photos soon. ( if the weather clears up ) How do you make it rain? Take your convertible out for the season!
