So I received my first part today (breather) that will hopefully fix my oil loss problem. Well on my oil loss thread someone mentioned when adding the breather the vacuum line needs capped off. He directed me to lowes for the cap. Anyways I put the breather on and order the cap from lowes for my wife to pick up on her way home from work. She arrived home all frustrated about taking the detour to Lowe's and how traffic was bad. She throws the plug at me and I go to the garage to install it. I wondered if the breather box had any RX stickers and I look under the pile of paper in the box and there was two plugs

Here is mine. Ownership for 3yrs now and a total of 8900 miles. Mod list too long to list. Some thoughts of selling for a truck before I retire in 19 months.

I'm sure if you shoot an email to them they'd be happy to send you some.

What does the breather actually do?

It Allows you to delete the Clean air tube (tube that runs from drivers side valve cover to intake tube) which stops the possibility of oil being dumped into the intake.

Where does the oil go? Do you still need a catch can?

Nice to meet you Cj. Lets talk about why we are addicted to camaro5. Discuss...HA!

I do still need a catch can. I was wondering what happens to the oil too. Maybe the breather cap and the drilling of the passenger valve cover fixes the problem?
