Default breather woes

Hi,

I am having trouble with a breather that was with the car when I bought it.

On 1 bar everything seems ok, but with 1.5 bar oil leaks from the seals. So I guess I have either a problem with the breather, or my piston rings are gone ? which creates a buildup of pressure in the engine

The thing is, the previosu owner fitted the breather. I dont know if it was fitted correctly. Does someone have instruction son fitting a breather ?

One thing I have noticed is it still has the red valve/junction which seems to pop open from time to time, so maybe that is blocked/faulty or shouldnt be presemt at all.

Can someone advise the best way forward to diagnose this problem.
