The PVC valve creates a slight vacuum in the crankcase, and the felt in the
dip stick prevents dirt from going down the tube. Without the felt, dirt
could get into the tube, which wouldn't be a good thing.

We have one on our original Tiger. At least we think it is original
because all else on the car was untouched when we purchased it with 28K
original miles. It is off white.

Hello,
Interesting point; on the inside of the original dip stick bell, Ford put
a small washer (?) of felt. Very nice touch.
Wonder how many are left.....
