    My oil bath fits but it has connections for two hoses. Currently on my valve covers I have one breather that runs to the air cleaner, one PCV valve and one oil fill cap. This has kept me from putting it on. I don't know where the other hose is coming from/going to.

    There's a connection in the oil cup and one in the filter portion. Where's the second hose come from or go to?

    2 diff oil bath air cleaners, one for air pump, one without air pump.
    my guess would be emissions would have the second fitting go to the air pump.
    sounds like the style you have, for emissions
    I would just cap it if it were me, not needed.

    could you run the second to a compresor?? i've got the two outlet oil bath and a compresor with no filtergoing into it... been meaning to seek some council on whether or not it wold be wise to connect it to that pipe, but never really got around to it.

    That was my guess. Luckily Linus doesn't have a smog pump.

    Just looks goofy stickin' out there. R)

    I don't see why not, as long as the air is filtered
