Transfer case and transmission breathers

Can anyone provide me either pictures or specific details of the location of breathers for the transmission and transfer cases on a 4th Gen Runner. I've read over and over about them supposedly being located in the engine bay somewhere but I cannot find them. I can find the front diff breather.

My owners repair manual has no reference to the two breathers I am looking for but does reference the front and rear breathers.

Thanks

Mark
PS - Please don't start a reply with "They should be...." I am looking for exact details

From what I can determine, the transmission and transfer case have the breather in a loop, with the nipples on top of the cases. They are then linked to a pipe with a web wrapping (heat resistant I assume) that then goes forward and up the back of the engine. What I cannont establish is where the pipe go from there. It is hidden behind electrical looms near the firewall. Anyone who knows more...I would appreciate a specific location or photos. Thanks.

Bump. I am wondering this same thing, as of tonight, my hose is just hanging. Is it supposed to have a valve on it like the one found on the differential?
