How much oil are you thinking of losing (or is this for racing?).

I just took my oil vent pipes up high in the engine bay, joined them together with some copper pipework and stuck a breather filter on top.

True you will need bigger for racing. Could get away with not having one on mine, just a filter. All I get in mine is water (from condensing combustion blow through gases, no oil)...
