Default Rear Differential Breather

My 2000 Discovery 2 doesn't have a breather tube on the rear axle. I bought some 6mm diameter hose, but it only goes in so far and doesn't really seat itself. It looks like there is a metal insert in there, but it seems like there should be a rubber grommet there also. Anyone run into this?

I plan on tapping my axle and running these for breathers.

Hmmm, hadn't thought along those lines, thanks fish!

Make sure you run it somewhere high and dry while you're at it.
