Gates Engine Crankcase Breather Hose P/N:EMH071
Keep crankcase blow-by vapors moving along their intended path with the Gates Engine Crankcase Breather Hose EMH260. This breather hose carries ventilation gases from the valve cover to the oil separator, and it drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2007-2011 MINI Cooper and the 2011 MINI Cooper Countryman. Crankcase hoses harden, crack, and split with age and heat, so replacing a failed hose helps restore the sealed ventilation route the engine relies on.
