RE: Air Breathers???
If you look at your engine you'll see a hose about half inch in diameter that leads from the top of the valve cover to the intake tube prior to the throttle body. It's there to allow bypass air to recirculate back into the intake, and it's part of the emissions control components that are checked at smog stations. The air breather fits onto the valve cover in place of that hose, and is purely for looks.
