Default Metco Breather Question

I have a question about the Metco breather. Does it have any internal baffles or deflectors to keep the rocker arm splatter from getting blown into the filter? Also, does it fit with the Corvette fuel rail covers or does the oil fill hole in the cover have to be enlarged.

Thanks,

Mike

Ive had a breather on my motor for 2+ weeks and sofar it is still clean. If you turn it upside down you see metal (not filter). I measured my crankcase pressure with a homemade manometer and I have 0 crankcase pressure.

Got my right side cover today. With slight trimming at the bottom of the hole, it fits over the tube I made to replace the fill tube, so it should only take slight trimming to fit the Metco breather. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> Now to find a K&N to fit my tube.
