I have been trying to find a Oil Catch Can for the above does anybody have any suggestions.

I have an Elite Engineering one on mine, the guy I bought it from had bought it from the US but never fitted it, so I fitted it when I gor it home.

Looks good, catches oil. Not much else to it really.

I've also got the Elite fitted in the same spot. They come with motor specific fitting kits so you can choose LFX and it comes with all the brackets etc.
Neat, simple, catches oil.

I can't tell from those pictures, but does the catch can drain captured oil back to the sump, or do you need to drain it manually?

Most catch cans will not drain it to the sump because the oil can be contaminated.

Here's a dumb question guys. What is the catch can for?

they catch oil from the air/vapor that is pulled from the crankcase preventing it getting into the intake of the engine.

Drain manually. The bottom half unscrews, that's where the oil ends up.
