Oil Bath Air Cleaner

Hi,

I have a nice running 71 that is getting to be well sorted, a nice driver!
I have taken care of just about all the oil leaks and seam to have one area left.
The car came to me with it's original D-jet and air cleaner but there are no hoses hooked-up to the cleaner. I'm not sure of the funtion of this "oil bath" cleaner but it seams to be weeping oil all around. I've cleaned it up and changed the filter and it just overloads itself again,what a mess!
The engine is running strong and I just drove it to Lime Rock for the ALMS ( 170 miles round trip) and it burns no oil.
Any pictures or diagrams would be helpful and THANK YOU in advance.

Here's the car in the corral.

Thanks again!!!
