On stock valve covers from a 67 small block, the oil breather cap has a hose that runs to the air cleaner. Has anyone figured out how to connect the hose to a chrome aftermarket cleaner?

On the air cleaner I had the bottom plate had a knock-out and a hose adapter.

Yep, some aftermarket air-cleaners have a spot for it already. Some dont. Mr.Gasket from what I've seen DO have it...my Edelbrock air cleaner I bought a while ago did NOT.

I just bought an Edelbrock air cleaner and it had it installed already and chrome like finish as well.

That's for the PCV valve, isnt it? If the aircleaner doesnt make provision for a connection you can connect to a port on the carby (check carby instructions for correct port), at least I could on the Edelbrock carby I used to have.

I ended up buying an oil breather filter, like the older Fords had. The plastic holder for the filer has a 90 degree bend in it and I drilled a hole in the flat part of the air cleaner base and clip her in. The hose is 5/8" dia, like the heater hose.
