Fitting a BMC what do I need to do about oil breather ?

[Aluco]

As title, fitting a BMC (Or viper, haven't decided yet) tonight. What do I need to do about the oil breather, do I need to buy one of those tiny filters for it and some piping ? how do I fit them?

Where is the oil breather located ?

(This is on a 1.4 16v engine)

Can I get a breather from halfords on the way home If I need one and how much are they ?

Thanks.

Where is the piping on the 1.4's mate ? I can't find it !

Just put a little breather filter on and ditch the piping. The filter is only there to help reduce fumes so you could even run it with nothing on at all if you want the cheapest solution. Might not get through MOT though if they are picky.
