No idea if there is something missing here, but I cannot remember if I took something off or not, but I cannot find whatever went on here.
Can someone please check their 180 and let me know - bit odd that it goes direct to atmosphere - especially as it has clipped edges which to me means there should be something there.
It is on the exhaust side cam cover, gearbox end - not that you cannot see. There is nothing on the system at the local dealership...
Thanks in advance..

yes - left hand side there is and then there is a hole the right of my red circle where it looks like it drains back into the head... but why would it... surely it goes full circle back to the inlet???

Put your finger in it and you'll see it's nothing , it's only a breather on the gti 135

There would be oil around the hole if the hose was missing.

I have an oil catch tank and it's fed from that breather hole, if I took my hose off it would be very messy lol.
But it looks like its blanked off on the 180.
