After I drill and pull that plug out, how does the breather tube mount? From its looks, it just slides right down in there, but what keeps it in place?

I could be wrong, but I dont recall seeing a band around it. I only looked at it for a second though..

That attachment band is often missing (from being broken off during removals over the years - my guess).
