Well truthfully I know techs that have been leaving them out as a matter of course for as long as I can remember. They do clog up and they are nothing more than a little plastic insert. If you throw that part out and leave the rubber nipple and plastic housing so you can plumb the rest of the crankcase ventilation circuit you should be fine. As far as any "official" mandates from the Swedes themselves I have heard nothing to that extent but again people have been leaving them out as long as I can remember, 20+ years.
