Default 93-5095 issue
Guys, it appears we are missing something. Anyone know what it is? Do we need a special keeper?

No, you are missing the "cap" and spring that sits on top of the bottom tube; nothing special, you just don't have all the parts..........

What's up with that fitting and hose? Where does the other end go? Is it some kind of DIY vent? or oil cooler contraption?

That is the vent hose from the head breathers that vent the crankcase vapor directly into the intake/throttle body.

If that hose is connected directly to the crankcase breathers in the heads to run the oil mist back into the bottom end without some sort of relief it won't vent the pressure build up and it will eventually find its own way out.Like that leaky looking spot nearby there ,It just don't look right

Oh, re-read your post I suppose if it's dumping into the TB then I guess it would/could work like stock breathers coming out the top o the heads. but why? And he better find the tube tops lol.
