The RR OCC is not a OCC, it's a toy that should be kept away from all engines.

the obsession some have with OCCs...it might as well be their second job..

you can use any push lock hose that is the correct diameter for the fittings...any autoparts store will have it

Well I think partly was due to the PCV thread posted by dzenno......And the fact that the RR OCC leaks.....somewhat.

True, but the advise is solid pertaining to RRs... better just to leave it off. Too restrictive. It's pretty clear if you look at the data and understand how the n54 pcv system works.
