okay, I was replacing the bushings on my rear differential and I noticed a little plastic tube like piece on the passenger side of the differential on the housing under the bushing. it looks like it is a vent, its about 1" long and about 1/4" in dia. can anyone tell me what this is. I accidently hit it with the hammer and it broke off. its a 10 bolt from my 65.

That is indeed the vent for the rear end. The part is still available from GM and restoration suppliers but comes with a dark green cap instead of white.
