If you are referring to what I did a while back, I can update the original post with info and recent pics.....

Results from that have been great and have worked well over time. What I found was not the oil actually getting out but an oily moisture / vapor coming through. The separator is catching a lot of it and when I stop to refuel, I open the drain valve and allow about 1/2 cups of oily sludge water to drain out. I have found that this sludge eat aluminium very easy .... the separator ali dipstick, part of it disappeared one day ....

This CCV filter is something you want to change often, like every 20k miles. Waiting too long and it is a problem waiting to happen.
