Turbo oil accumulater tank hose.
The stock turbo accumulator tank has a breather hose attached to it, what is its purpose? Some aftermarket tanks look like they have eliminated this hose.

See the response on your post for air breather hoses.
The purpose of the breather hose is to create positive pressure on the tank to vent it throught the air cleaner assembly. What is it you're doing?

Converting to EFI. Old CIS intake box will be gone. So I need to know the function and correct setup to keep these hoses working the way they are supposed to.
So this hose from the accumulator tank should get vacuum from the intake? Does it just draw off oil vapor/moisture?

The breather is a vent for the sump. So if you provide filtered air that is all the sump needs. You can hook the hose up to the filtered air on the intake or put a little K&N type breather filter on the hose.

If you choose to keep it, you have to connect it between the filter and the throttle.
