United Kingdom 2003 Defender 90 2.5 TD SW Epsom Green
V8 Rocker Cover Pipes
Slowly trying to learn and understand the engine in my new v8 to ensure it’s setup properly as am finding a few strange things and I’m not sure if they’re correct or not!

So maybe a dumb question but I’m struggling to find details around what I assume are breather pipes?

Picture below shows the two pipes coming from each rocker cover and connected with a T piece. Is this correct and how it should be?

Many thanks!!

The pipework usually goes via two flame traps to the intake side of the twin carbs originally fitted, you should be ok so long as you run a length of pipe from your tee piece into a oil catch can or into the chassis frame.
