I have pulled the vent cap out and tapped the hole for a 1/8" npt/1/8" compression elbow. from there a piece of polly hose routed to the fire wall and zip tied to the wiring bundle. this gets you a couple of feet above water level. You will need to go to a plumbing supply for the 1/8" npt tap.

you know this is wierd because when i pulled my tranny (t176) mine had a vent tube that ran up to the firewall, with a factory clip that held it to the firewall, and little white vent cap. you could tell it was factory it has the squeeze clamps, and the hose looked just as old and crappy as the axle vent tubes

My 85 and my 82 both have this set up.
