There is a good pipe fitting place in WISBECH, BGC MOTORSPORT, 01945 466690, phone them for a catalogue.
Or there is FLEXOLITE, 01684 541941.

Don't breath from the back of the cover if you have raised the rev limit above standard - the crank will pick up the oil at high rpm and throw it to the top of the engine where it will then just empty into the catch tank.....

how is it held into the camcover? do you need to tap the cover then thread a 90 degree in? i have a catalogue of fittings but all looks complicated

3/4 unf mate i have loads if you wana borrow one drill cam cover to 17.5mm and tap it i doubt you get a -8 bulkhead/-10 fitting as i had to turn a -10 -10 fitting down you can use a -8 bulkhead if you using 1/2 pipe for your breather but if its 16mm like most then ya need a -10 elbow fitting
hope this helps

well if there is enough meat around the hole may be tap to 20.5 and thread it -10 plus that way it will be cheaper as its a standard fitting needed if not enough meat then tap it out to 20x1.5mm and turn down a -10 fitting again
