Default How did you make the slash cut on the feedback air tube from the valve cover?

Hi, I want to know how some of you make the slash on the the tube that feed back to the intake hose from the valve cover? I was try to use a strew, but didn't work. I am afriad that the strew will get loose and suck into the manifold. Anyone?

You don't really need it, but for reference, you can buy thin metal tubing for these sorts of projects from hobby shops. Cut the tube with the smallest pipe cutter you can find. If you need to cut at an angle, use a fine toothed blade.

It's a trick from theoldone.com that is supposed to help prevent oild blowby, It helps keep the pressure in the valve cover positive instead of negative (which sucks out oil vapor, thus burning oil).
