Breather Hoses

Basically I want to fit a oil catch tank (if I can find the space) but after looking through Haynes manual cover to cover I can only find one breather hose, when I believe there are meant to be 2. It's just a theory as all the catch tanks I have looked at have 2 inlets and a outlet for the breather filter. I know the first breather comes right out the top. But where is the second. If there is one anyway?

i dont think there is a second i have just fitted a small filter to the space that the standard breather comes from so id image that if you want to fit a tank you would need to fit a tee piece into the line i bought a hose from halfords that would do the job its fits directly on to the block but it would require some small jubilee clips to hold it in place

hope this helps

Thanks might have to do that but I believe one comes from the camshaft cover and one from the crankcase. The weather has stopped me getting inside to have a proper look
