MessageI believe the reason for the valve cover breather was to get rid of the moisture caused by condensation. I do not know why some models had them and some don't. It varied from model to model.
I guess if your oil looks milky (like yoo-hoo) then you are getting water in the oil and may want to add some breathers.

Are there any REAL benefits to having the breather pipes on the valve covers.
