rearend leaking

i had a moser 12 bolt put in but theres a brass nipple sticking out the top of the axle tube on the drivers side, now it's shooting oil straight up and on the bottom of the car, anyone know what this nipple is for and can i just plug it.

Yes, that is a breather and you need to add approx two ft of tubing to it. We tie it off up on the gas tank strap.
