1600 x-flow breather pipe connector

Guys

See piccy attached.

I want to know what the connector should be that will connect the breather elbow on the rocker cover to the pipe.

Currently, it is a threaded nipple which whilst it will do the job is unlikely to be the correct fitting

That's an unusual fitting and looks as if it's just a push on and jubilee clip type of fitting, although it will need a larger bore hose for the breather than is normal (unlikely to cause a problem though).

In the top right hand of the photo is the type of fitting that is more usual. For this you would need to machine the back end of the rocker cover and tap a 3/8"BSP thread into it. Then a hose can be connected with a jubilee clip again; make sure you use oil hose and not water hose.
