Would it make any difference if this breather was blocked up or not i.e.
with a screw?

I have a Mantzel rep inlet on, and I have blocked this breather up. Just wondering if it would make any difference if it was unblocked, as Vauxhall must of put it there for a reason

Im sure it goes inside the rocker cover.

Its what is usually connected to the original inlet manifold.

I can't just be a stump can it? why would vauxhall put a pipe on it then.
I'm sure people put oil catch tanks inlet going to there.

Its got a small hole in the center of it, if you cant see it then its blocked. Wont make any difference blocking it up though really but its not hard to connect it to your new inlet manifold if you want to

Be fine left open, but i blocked mine anyway.
