That's non replaceable.

A crankase breather (PCV Breather) is typically located on the air cleaner housing on top of the carb where the PCV hose connects to the air intake housing.

The mesh under the valve covers is acts as a baffle more than anything to keep oil from getting sucked up into the PCV line.
