Default regarding breather box and air tools

hi guys! know some stuff about hondas but i admit i dont know everything about them.
i need to know if its a problem when there is oil like deposits coming out the 2 hoses attached to the breather box, right where they connect? if my breather box is f#cked what aftermarket stuff can i replace it with? can i just clean it?

also, how strong a compressor do i need to use air tools like impact gun? we have a big one at home but i havent checked the hp.

Not to be a dick but is english your first language? It just seems to me that this was translated someway.

By breather box are you talking about an aftermarket catch can? If so where are the ports of it coming from? Valve cover? Back of the block? They are suppose to collect oil and then vent or recirculate it. What exactly is your problem?

I use my 33gallon 1.6hp 4.9 scfm at 90 psi compressor all the time and it does a great job. I would say thats the minimum compressor setup you would want to get. But at the same time you need to get a damn good gun to work with it as well.

^yeah, im a (il)legal chinese immigrant fresh off the boat and am having mr. fu ling hyu from the asian store under the apartment i am hiding in in china town translate for me.

yes, there are 2 hoses both on top of the breather box. the breather box is under the intake manifold so its hard to take pics. its connected to the block, colored black. b16eg engine.



see the 2 hoses beside the oil filter, one looks like the pcv(brown) and the other is black. mine is also that dirty. is this normal or is there anything i should replace. i keep cleaning it but it gets like that after a while...leak???
