Default Crankcase filter confusion

Friends, I got a 1995 Softail FLSTN that. has. a breather kit and an aftermarket air filter installed. There is also a small crankcase filter installed

(which can be seen to the left side of the aftermarket air filter). But, I'm a bit confused as to the purpose of that filter and where it's connected. I traced the connecting hose to a round, black container in the back. It's in the video.


Do you know what that container is and what purpose this crankcase filter serves in this particular case? Thank you in advance

California bikes have a charcoal fuel vapor recovery canister. Most folks remove them so you don't see them very often.

This is not a Cali bike. I'm wondering if anyone knows where that hose leads to? What is that can?

Still trying to figure out what the can.device below the arrow is doing?

Best guess, since it pumped to evap can, and port into it (what the port the arrow is pointing to), should be the tube off the carb float bowel port to that can.

Hence charcoal emission port out of carb, should be tubed to port that arrow above is pointing at on the left hand can.
