Shrek's ears/ breather tank

Post by offtherailz1 »

evening, today I removed my fuel tank to replace it along with all fuel lines etc. When I removed the breather tanks the top hose which should have the 'shreks ear' had a self tapping screw in each pipe!!
So what are my options?? Does anyone know if anyone sells the correct filter?
Or, I'm thinking of adapting one of these, fuel tank filters. Anyone have any suggestions?
