Yeah, but it's really too small in diameter. When you see that the hose leads 
to the air intake, I think that settles it. Note that the intake elbow goes 
thru where the original breather stand used to be, so he had to block that off, 
which makes me wonder if the fan housing still gets any support from it (there 
IS a bolt there.) It looks to me like he just made something to use the fuel 
pump hole as a breather port and he realized that he needed some volume to 
allow the oil mist to settle out and run back down.
