The one that comes out parallel to the top of the auto ( I am assuming it is an auto) gearbox is the breather pipe and just feeds up amongst everything else at the back of the engine. It does not connect to anything up there.

If it is misbeghaving and "dropping down" (Mine once dropped onto the road) then punch a hole through it at the top end and cable tie it to say the pipes on the back of the plenum.

Don't know what the other is.

Can you post a photo of it?

I assume that the auto gearbox breather pipe is one piece from the top of the box to where it ends up behind the engine but I suppose yours might be in two sections that have become separated :-/

Something else about auto gearbox :

There's these holes on the auto gearbox body :



I'm wondering if they
 - should be covered by some rubber cup
OR
 - are designed like this(breathing,or I don't know...)
