67 engine crankcase baffle?

[Ron C.]

on the 67 and earlyer blocks there is a vent baffle in the lifter gally,is that the correct term for that part or is it called something else.

I've always called it a vapor separator, as that's what it does - it keeps liquid oil out of the air cleaner; before PCV systems, it kept liquid oil out of the road draft tube.

Thanks John.
