You can leave it open, but you might suck some dirt into the fuel tank.

What I did it put a hose on it, looped it down and then up (like a U shape) and put a fuel filter for a lawnmower on it. Just to prevent dirt from getting in the tank.

What hoses did you looped? And put a filter where exactly? Vent or canister hose?

Vent.

I put the filter where the stock canister goes basically, I just zip tied it.
