Valve cover breathers

Wanted to find out what kind of valve cover breathers others are using. I have the automotive type, they drip oil after hard run...pair 525 SCs.
Any suggestions?

Thanks

They should have hoses runnnig back up to the flame arrestor.

Thanks for quick reply and pic.
Bought the boat used, came with about 8" x 12"
K & N's. I think it would help to rig them up like originals, may go that route.

Thats one of the pics that HotDuck sent me before I bought it. Its not quite that clean anymore..........but its close:D

kathycool, you can buy attachments for the K&N filters to connect breather hoses to the arrestor. I have them on another boat. I got mine from Summit Racing. They are only about $8 each. Mine for a 3" high filter were part # knn-85-1350.

I set my boat motors up with PCV systems.
