  -> Thanks, VRN
disagree  bigedsenior: Every car engine has a breather tube to allow the crankcase pressure to equalize and to extract blowby. Before emissions systems they were open to the air, but now are connected to the exhaust manifold.

Explanation:

neutral  bigedsenior: hose usually refers to rubber; tube to metal and small diam rubber tubing. Frankly they are interchangeable
