3d printed AN bung?

Probably not the right section but it's valve cover related? Using hose clamps on braided AN hose is just...not for me. I was thinking about 3d printed 8AN male bungs

Default 3d printed AN bung?

Using hose clamps on braided AN hose is just...not for me. I was thinking about 3d printed 8AN male bungs with a stepped ID bore to slide over the valve cover breather ports and epoxy on. Or maybe having some machined from delrin?

I know you couldn't crank down on the fittings but it would make for a "cleaner" connection?

Am I barking up the wrong tree?

They sell AN hose ends that have a hidden hose clamp inside. I suppose you could put one on the hose, bore out the other one and fit it over the breather tube for a cleaner look? Or just the one on the hose?

My old ones looked like this (red)

Yeah I know about those clamps. I guess those are probably my best bet.
