in your last picture you sent you can see the driver side valve cover vent tube pairly peaking around the corner of the breather housing. my question is the location of the hole in the bottom breather pan that the driver side valve cover vent tube. I can tell approx where it is by lookinmg at the actuall top hat because it is nothced to go aorund the two breathers and the snorkle but was wanting a measurement.

69, I got a air cleaner assembly from tony to, same deal no vent set up on left hand side of air cleaner base. I had all the parts, vent filter, rubber connections and a pipe to match the right hand side. I put the air cleaner base on the engine along with the vent, rubber connections and pipe as so that I could mock up where to drill a hole to fit the rubber pipe connection, worked fine for me. I have not figured how to send pic's or I would have sent you a couple.

I will get mine and take some shots of it and get the wife to post them. If looking at the air cleaner base with the large air horn to your left go from the large opening edge to the first small hole is 3.5 inches to center and then 20.75 to the second hole

the second hole is reenforced with the rolled edge just like the first hole that will be hard to might be able to weld a washer on not sure if it needed .
