yes a breather filter. hondazone or any parts store has em. just make sure you cap off the plug on the intake piping.

I would rather get an oil catch can, if you install a breather you run the possibility of oil being sprayed in your engine compartment.

That should work if you dont wanna splurge for a catch can. That picture is of a 4G63 but same concept.

if it's a lot of oil, check ur levels. That's blowby- oil getting past your rings. Catch can would be your best bet if it is pretty bad, but keep an eye on things.
