    1969 911 Oil tank plumbing, breather hose

    Looking through my old pictures before I took my engine out of the car and I can't find a good picture of the oil breather lines that run to the oil tank / filler neck at the right side of the engine bay on my 1969 911T. Just wanted to double check I understand it correctly. Can you look at the picture below and let me know please.

    1: Oil breather hose from the top of the engine?

    2: On the oil filler neck, vapor vent from the air cleaner?

    3: I'm not running the original air filter box, going with the PMO water shield air cleaners, what to I do with this? A hose ran from the front of the air old air box to this location.

    Cheers!

    1 and 2 are correct, cap off #3. When the heater valves are closed it is assumed you would also want warm air to the snorkle intake to prevent carb icing, you no longer have that feature.
