Road draft tubeWonder how much oil spewed from the crankcase vent pipe onto Dumbo as it went over?
Old School inmates will know what that is.

LOL you mean the 50's "pcv"Road draft tube
When I was in high school, I owned a 1952 Studebaker pickup with a 170 CI four banger flathead. In my engine, it was called the incremental oil change tube. It would blow a quart or two overboard every few days.
I'd drive over to the Sinclair gas station by my house and purchase quarts of "rerefined" oil in glass jars like these for 25¢. Every three weeks or so the engine changed its own oil.
I remember that ol' Stude...it was cool.
Did the Sinclair thing as well...must've been an Eldorado thing.
