Crankcase ventilation/Oil Separator Mod

I got a free air line water/oil separator from work. The bowl has a small crack and hissed with the 160psi line pressure. It works with centrifugal force and a porous plastic filter.

So far it's working pretty well. After a hard run to get the engine hot, it no longer looks like I have a steam engine under my car. The exit is still vented to the atmosphere until I'm satisfied the system works. The air cleaner and u-tube are from a 79 300SD (The reason for the lack of an CCV port in the lid and the plug in the u-tube.)

It's already gathered a few drops worth of oil, but it's only been on for 30 miles.
