mercedes vito 108 cdi
hi all, this is my other van, its a vivaro 1.9 dci, i have oil dripping out of a breather pipe on the underside of the triangular thingy directly in front of the yellow oil filler cap in the image on the link, can anyone shed light on what it is and whats the purpose, i had put a bolt in the end tube to stop drip but it just filled with oil, any help would be great, i know its not a Mercedes but some good people on here with great knowledge.
Thanks in advance roger.

Looks like an oil separator to return oil from the breather to the crankcase? I would expect that pipe dripping oil to fit onto the crankcase somewhere.
Emission regulations don't allow crankcase to vent to atmosphere so it must connect somewhere.
