that black box with the hose connected to the valve cover?? if so thats the stock oil catch can, it pretty much helps keep your oil clean from the blow by gas. you should keep that on there or get a aftermarket one or you'll be changing your oil alot more.

i dont think your right about changing oil a lot more! why would you change oil a lot more? its actually called a factory air/oil seperator. Oil fume comes up from the bottom through a hose. The separator keeps oil down and allows air to come up to the t-fitting in the valve cover. therefore you'll be changing the same amount of oil!! a lot of people either have a breather on it or they just route into the intake, with a aftermarket oil catch can. ebay catch cans works just as great!
