Jeremy...
these "tubes" feed graduated (specifically
sized) orifices through which crankase
gasses are fed into the combustion process
in a measured amount, off the "flame
arrestor/oil vapor separator (through appropriate hoses and plastic "T" fit
ting) mounted on the timing chain cover.
These make up the "exit" or "exhaust" side
of the PCV system on engines so equipped,
the "inlet" side of the equation being a filtered plastic oil filler cap on
the "early"
cars or a feed tube into the valve cover
(again, through a "graduated orifice) from the charcoal cannister on later
emissions
vehicles equipped with closed loop fuel
system.
You got the charcoal cannister? Or...is your
motor equipped with the intake manifold
mounted rubber diagphragm "flying saucer" type earlier PCV valve? Or, neith
er?
