Auto Tranny & T-case Breathers?

Do these exist for the second generation A340H tranny (its the one where T-case and tranny are all one unit)? After searching, it looks like auto's vent through the dipstick (no breathers) and the T-case has a breather that can be extended, but it sits pretty high as is (and really doesn't need extended). Just hoping someone has a definitive answer, esp. for the A340H. I'll probably get in there and check anway, just hoping to get some info on what all I should expect to find.

Thx,
Steve

Don't know about the tranny - not sure if it does breathe. The t-case breather should be high on the top left of the case. Given the viscosity of the fluid, this breather should be extended up without any sags in the hose. (The thin fluid is likely to be sloshed around and could collect in a low spot. Enough fluid in the breather hose will make it easier for excess pressure to exit via a gasket.) Without a significant body lift, this means going into the cabin.
