Certainly seems that you brand new Boston Bob engine would be very worthy of
new oil tower/breather valve - didn't one guy say they were 90 bucks ?

That's not that much more of an investment considering what I imagine his
new engines cost.

The reason for my question is I'm putting a rebuilt Boston Bob 2.1 into
my '85 Westy and transferring many things over from the old engine.  I
cleaned up the breather tower and "Tried" to test it.  Blowing and
sucking on the hose nipple makes me think the tower is "Straight
through" and only functioning as a vapor separator.  Sigh ...
