Hello All,
I have an engine breather tube and a twisted connecting strap and am trying to figure out how and where this attaches to the engine block. it looks like it might attach to the topside of the oil sump flange but the holes don’t quite line up.

does anyone have an image or description on where this is supposed to attach?

thanks,
Ron
 
I thought I had a photo. The tube goes in the hole in the block just under the fuel pump and the support bolts on to one of the sump bolts. I will get a photo in the morning.

Yup, I fit the tube into the block but can’t figure out where to bolt it to the block or sump.
 
Hope this helps.

Thanks David! That helps immensely! I was focused on attaching it on the top since I didn't think it would fit on the underside due to the oil sump stamped flange. Now I see there's a spacer in there to make it work so it makes perfect sense now.

I appreciate you taking the time to snap a picture.

Thanks,
Ron
