Crankcase Ventilation rev 4
So I designed a parts and had it 3D printed. It caps the oil fill timing case adapter and gives me a place to run a tube from (either vent down or vacuum pump).

The vacuum pump exhausts into the crankcase. What's the point?

The above is the output, goes to the vacuum pump, then to a catch can, not back into the crank case.
