how would i attach a rubber hose to?
would a fitting need to be wlded in place ?
was think of getting some sort of t piece and plumbing it in to breather so it breathes from both sides

What sort of breather are you using currently as most utilise this hole anyway.

its a bailey system.
it uses the cam cover and the normal breather position.
with return to sump on turbo side and vent to atmos under the car.
think it would improve it to breathe from both sides?
have no problems with it at the moment but every little hepls.

The Bailey instructions say to use the exhaust side as the oil return (not really ideal), and the fitting kit comes with the adapter required.
I used this to breathe from both sides of the block, and have a return to sump below oil level.

im sure my oil return goes into a fitting at the very bottom of the block above the sump??
had a look today and there is a blanked off hole on the turbo side.
will have to get more pic up folks to confirm what hole is in fact what?

would anyone have a pic from the side of a block?
the hole that is NOT getting used on mine is closer to the back of the block than the one that IS already getting used, if you know what i mean.
