Good Afternoon Folks,

I just purchased a used Airaid MIT tube model 200-996 for my 2009 Yukon XL 5.3L.

Can anyone tell me what the orifice for the breather tube looks like when it interfaces with the main AirAid tube?

The previous owner of this tube seems to have somehow damaged the female threads of the barbed fitting location. What I can see inside the threaded area are two smaller holes (considerably smaller than the hose diameter) connecting to the main intake area. I want to make sure I have the right amount of flow for the breather tube and it's not somehow incorrect before I repair these threads and install this piece.

Thank you all for your help!!

Photos attached. Removing the threaded fittings shows damaged threads and 2 small holes in the bore that go through to the main airflow path.

I think that's just standard NTP threads. Should be able to find
that tap anywhere. Or just go up to next size and get a new nipple (prob brass)
from local hardware store.

I think I can get this squared away from a sealing perspective but I'm concerned that the two holes that go through the plastic to allow the air through may be hosed up in some way. Is anyone able to confirm that there are supposed to be 2 small holes connecting the breather side to the intake side?

I'm thinkin the previous owner used this on a non stock or modified vehicle.
Should be no reason for those little holes
It's possible but according to him it was on a 2012 Tahoe. Any idea what that passage is supposed to look like?
