I've got a Saylor Beall VT-PL-735-80 compressor that I picked up on epay for $400. Works great but a while back I noticed there was a valve (or something) that had apparantly come loose and fallen off, and now I cant find it:confused: . If you saw my shop, you'd understand...:p Anyway, can anybody ID it and more importantly, will it be ok to run without it? When its running, as it goes through its compression cycle, a little escapes as it compresses. Any help would be most appreciated!

Crankcase vent?

OK, the link works now. It looks like a crankcase vent to me.
