Default bailey breather

Hi guys

Ive just bought a bailey oil breather, i know that the top two ports go to the
rocker cover and the bottom angled one goes back to the block, what do i do with the straight port on the bottom. im pretty sure i read on here that thats meant to go to the metering unit, but i should blank it off at the metering head, if so do i just leave that port without anything connected to it, and also what do i use to blank the metering unit.

Pls help as the only istructions i have are the bailey ones and i remember reading on here that the bailey instructions arent the best way to plumb it in

Top two go to the rocker cover ports.

Angled one goes to the block.

Straight one goes into the metering unit.

Don't put the straight base return to the metering head,put it to a catch tank/bottle.Then blank off the outlet on the metering head,easy.Plus I wont charge you for this info!! Regards,Micky
