There are modern replacements - it's the period ones
Hi Mark
I've looked in past for a modern match to this vent. Though I have found functional replacements from tractor and heavy equipment hydraulic outfits vent on hydraulic tanks. I have not found a look-a-like replacement for the original unit. The closest that I have come to the top mushroom is from a Ford truck but it is a push on crankcase breather.
When we find a source I need at least two for my 3-ton CMPs.
You do need these breathers I tried just putting a plug in, and the pressure build up from heating of the unit going down the road resulted in seals pissing out gear lube.
Cheers Phil
