Valve cover breathers..
I've got oil constantly seeping out of the vents on my valve covers. They're Teagues, with the bolt on "stack" vents. Is there some type of fill-material I can install in the vents to capture the oil before it blows out? And where do I get it?
Thanks in advance!
Thanks in advance!

No baffles - they're hollow.
Sweat bands? I'm worried about heat. Maybe I'll stick a set if them and a scotchbrite pad in a 450 degree oven and see what happens. Probably do this sometime when the wife's not home..
Thanks for the suggestions.

Craig, neat arrangement. Looks like some custom machining/welding.
But I'm running short on time - too many projects left to get this thing back together!

I had the same problem and fixed it by adding a puke tank. Tank was made from a empty paint quart can. No more hoses to the flame arrester. Insert barb fittings in side of can w/ one fitting on top to vent fumes to outside thru hull fitting. I hope this helps. JIM
