Does anyone have the SAE hose size and the length I should get to do the crankcase vent update?

..Go with a full 3/8" ID, or you will likely still puke too much oil. I think too many guys skimp on that upgrade by using a simple 1/4" Tee down below. But Cannondale updated the hose and tee size for a reason.
If you want a pre-fabbed setup with a magnetic drain plug, or an aftermarket improved drainplug, give me a call or email.
I use Aeroquip push-on hose which is a good full ID, but a slimmer OD than other hose you will find -- and the pathway to the upper Tee is quite cramped in there already, so a slimmer hose is nice. Tees are high-ID thinwall stainless, and the clamps are compact OEM, and no-damage euro clamps at the lower frame and starter-cover.

You can read up on it here, and compare pictures to see if you still need it:

i'm not sure if you got my PM because it said your inbox was full boomer so here is what i sent.
