If you're playing in mud its a good idea to get those breathers up out of the way. You can fab one easily at a hardware store...just take your breather in with you and match the threads and buy some tubing

Great looking runner man!! it's rare to find a clean one like that in my area nice find...another tip on mudding when my rig is dry i spray the underside axles leafs ect... with wd40 helps the mud come off so your not packing around a few hundred extra pounds of mud under the rig when done
