the purpose is to catch any oil that could come out of the breather hole. Since you cannot pressurize the valve cover, the breather is usually left open.

Hey Mike, do you know of any specific model or brand of catch can that would fit inline for our breathers? I've seen them on dsm's but the hoses are way too small.
