Leaking Breather Hose?

[VegasMike]

rom research I have done on here it looks as if the breather hose for the front differential is leaking. I've had the vehicle for almost a year and this recently started happening as it starts to warm up here in Las Vegas. It really started leaking on a trip to So Calif and back this past week.

Here are some pictures to confirm what is leaking, and my question is how to remedy the leak and stop it?

(It's the black hose with the fitting on the end next to the steel lines, mounted in the same bracket.

Axle Vent Hose Fluid Leak

An axle fluid leak that appears to be from the end of the axle vent hose most often occurs during hot ambient temperatures and/or while towing.

Installation of filter (p/n 5651682) will act as an accumulator and prevent fluid from being forced out the end of the vent tube. Install the filter vertically in either direction approximately 10-15 cm (4-6 in) from the end vent cap of the hose or where convenient. Retain the filter using the supplied hose clamps and secure the filter and hose to prevent damage.

Hope this helps!

Any idea where to get this filter from?

I got mine from a GM dealer, just give them the part number.
