Does crank case ventilation require that one way silver "rattle' valve? 140-160

On 140's, the 3/8" hose that leads from the oil trap on the side of the block to a T between the vacuum boost for the brakes and the manifold usually has a silver one way valve that "rattles". I'm assuming it's designed to allow oil vapor through from the crank case, but won't allow back pressure to go back into the crank case.

Is this valve required? Can they still be found?
