Wayne,
What does PCV stand for and where would I find this valve? Pardon my
ignorance, I'm learning.

Whistle slots work fine but if you really want a valve try a PCV valve.

I used the whistle slot and it works fine, IF you have a good rearward cut
on the piece that sticks out the bottom. I tried cutting it more in line
with the fuselage bottom, and that caused oil to blow onto the firewall
through the whistle slot. I recut it with more angle and it is working fine
without getting oil on the firewall.

Because of the possibility of the crankcase breather hose freezing up,
reflectorites have suggested slitting the top side of the hose near the
crankcase outlet for pressure relief in such an event. This avoids blowing
out the crankcase seal with a blocked hose.
Has anyone considered/used a pop off valve in the hose instead of a slit?
Seems like this would give a more reliable, controlled escape. If so,where
would one get such a valve?
