One of the first things I did upon purchase was some maintanance. And yes, when removing the air filter housing I broke off the small hose attachment on the end of the cranckcase breather hose receiver.
I’ll try to add some pics.
searched the forum, found this thread: https://www.fiatforum.com/threads/air-filter-change.464385/
and specially the post by @jrkitching that quotes: The 60HP engines have air filters that can be changed in about a minute, without tools. Later 69HP engines are not only secured by fiddly screws which are stupidly easy to cross thread, they also have a fragile breather attachment on the back of the airbox which will break in an instant if you are not careful.
my question is: this tiny hose is a breather, but from where?
I left the hose to breathe into the great wide open and blocked the hole in the plastic housing with a screw.
