Default Q: Pushrod tubes?

Noticed these pushrod tubes (see picture).
Never stumbeled upon them before.
Or maybe they are not pushrod tubes but part of the air cleaner?
Who makes them, and are they any good?

Thanks.

More photos with the air cleaner cover off would help confirm but they appear to be "Bypass Breathers"?

Those are breather re-routes. On top are filters and below are catch cans (which probably need emptied every so often), not stock and certainly not necessary. Two hoses to a T and then one hose to the ground is all that's needed, the breathers are one way (out) only.

You can get various types of external breathers from DK Customs. That setup looks over complicated. And ugly.

as said, they are breather/catch cans, and overkill at that
