Removing emissions stuff revisited

Having removed all of the emmissions stuff from my 76 Midget (was a California car) I am left with one piece of unfinished business. The blow back from the engine which comes out of the rocker arm cover needs to be dealt with. I have rigged a plastic bottle where the cannister used to be, to hold the liguids which come out of the cover, but that will not deal with the gasses. I am told by someone whose opinion I respect that this is not a good state of affairs.

Because I have a Weber DGAV carb, there is no place to feed this stuff. Has anyone figured out a way to make a feed to the carb for this, and if so, where would it go?

I would appreciate any input/advice on this.

Thanks

Hi,
what i did was pipe to the air cleaner thru a tee.Then ran from the tee, i ran a piece of hose to the bottom of the engine and let it vent to the air. it doesnt drip anything at all. the vent hose runs to the starter side of the engine,away from the exhaust.
