Anyone have a photo of the the oil/air vents/Tubes coming off of late 72 1.7L Heads, Oil is going everywhere... Options

[casey944]

I dont recall ever having the hoses hooked up that come out of my late 72 1.7L head where you can feel venting exiting the car. Recently did a bunch of tune up work and went for the first real drive yesterday. Car is running well but both of the vents had quite a bit of oil come out and go all over the engine tin. Realize this was over a 30 mile highway drive... I pulled over, plugged in the one by cyl3(had a hose there) cleaned up the mess and then drove some more... Then I notice oil coming out of the other port on the drivers side of the engine by my carb manifold... However I dont see a hose over there to plug it in to...

Anyone have a diagram of how this is to work or a kit? I honestly dont feel either of these had ever been plugged in but since I recently changed the oil(and possibly overfilled a bit) that might have caused the excess oil above the engine... For once the bottom of my engine doesnt leak but the top does!

Thanks in advance.

hoses 4, 5 and 6 in the diagram but with carbs, I don't know where the hose (in the diagram from the anti-flashback valve to the air cleaner) would go to. With FI it goes to the air cleaner so maybe to one of your carb air cleaners. There is also an aftermarket "thingy" that the head vent hoses go to; don't know the exact name but I've seen pix of it here... the vent hose is 13mm if I recall.... (but then the Bowlsby diagram says that (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) )
