I installed the TR3 style breather pipe in the crankcase of my 65 TR4 and I
like to think the reduced pressure lessened the leakage through the rear
oil seal. However I don't much like adding those noxious fumes to my
already nasty exhaust and eventually would like to run the pipe to a catch
filer of some kind.
