Default Breather system fitting?

Has there been a thread/guide done on here about this, i did a quick search but didn't find much.

Just basically wanting to know where the pipes go/come from, i take it one from the standard breather pipe (under inlet manifold?) and i know one come from the back of the rocker cover, where do the other 2 go, or is 1 just a drain?

Cheers!

The oilreturn under the turbo, altough people say just a screw-on jobbie isn't enough. And you should have pipe on it wich go's down into the sump under the oil level to prevent oil getting trapped in the separator.
The bigger outlet on the separator is the vent. For that fit a big hose long enough down along the chassis rail to the bottom of the car. ( i presume your talking the bailey style oil separator? )

succes, Rinus

Rinus 2005's picture is the best picture which shows it.

remember from factory it will have a bung/bolt in it, you need to remove the bolt and get an adapter as Rinus 2005 has got!

EDIT - please take the block out and get it acid dipped and painted, the rust looks awful!

Thanks, but it's not my engine. Got the pic from some threat of passion ford. ( want post the link, but i cant find anymore )
Here is a pic of a different setup. And saves drilling the rocker cover. Breath from both sides and return as pictured. ( i'm thinking of doing it this way with next cossie project )
