This is what I did http://rides.webshots.com/album/412721198FMhgsI . I didn't use the XB breathers, just added brass fittings to the rocker covers above the "Umbrella Valves". The JB Weld didn't really stop oil from draining down to the old breather holes, but that is no problem, if you use good sealant on the threads of the bolts that you use to plug those holes.

Oh, yeah. I have the XB breathers, if you want to go that route. I don't remember how much they cost. I couldn't find a way to use them in the old style rocker covers. To use XB breathers, you have to buy XB rocker covers.
