You can find a simple breather cap at most parts stores. Custom chrome or billet aluminum are available. Or stuff a filter in the "T" pipe on the top of your valve cover. Rick San Diego

My comments about that car contained no judgement from me on the implied value or quality of that car. I was only mentioning that it's out there and has some way-better-than-new type work done to it.
