A lot of GM products have a filter on the breather that installs through the
air filter housing and the hose connects to it. I have used these on the
breather hose when I have made modifications. They cost about $2-$3 and come
in a number of connector sizes, just get one that will fit the breather hose.
The local auto parts discounter usually has them bubble packed hanging on
the rack with gas filters and PCV valves.
