   there are two types mate.
   
   your on about the one that looks like that but has sponge in. where as this one has metal filtering bits in it.
   
   the one with sponge is the one you put on the rocker (helps with breathing) the one with metal in is for an oil catch tank.
   
   iirc!

   You can put this one on rocker, although both you are meant to not do really as you are venting to atmosphere and some MOT testers get arsey about it
