Short oil filler neck

Looking for a short oil filler neck or Does anyone know of a certain oil cap that can be used with the OE neck removed from the center iron? It's a S5 T2 motor. Tried to contact goopy performance. I found another billet one by IRP? I think... But it's way too expensive for what it is.

if taking away the top section from the kinked FC turbo 2 piece neck

then you can fit the plastic top from the overflow / filler point on the thermo neck

you need to slightly file the holes to fit

and you need to have the filler neck breathers hooked up so the sump space will not pressurize
( or take a nick out of the rubber seal on the cap )

you should now be able to run your I/C pipes over the top in a direct path

I just cut and welded mine. I wasn't after a fancy cap, just not the super long neck with the bend

I am sure that the OEM caps are all the same thread to put on the filler pipe.
The N/A filler pipe goes straight up if that helps.
I had the s5 with FD upper and kept the bottom of the TII filler but had the top part modified to clear the elbow.(cut and brazed)
It's not expensive to get done by any means.

here are a couple pics!
(pic #2 shows where the piece is brazed and modified,but still uses the lower part)

Thanks for the Really good input guys. I ended up just removing bottom piere from the center iron and cut it sort and welded it. Now it's just the stock piece but shorter. Now everything fits
