It is an unnecessary organ. The flame trap "screen" is to be taken out and disposed of properly. It serves no function except to clog up and cause needless repairs.

What might be in more need of replacement is the oil seperator box under the intake manifold. When that gets clogged up, you will blow seals like crazy, and that usually happens after 120K miles.
