A drain connector attaches a hose to a port from which oil is drained from the chock of an oil film bearing. The drain connector comprises an elbow-shaped conduit having a horizontal leg adapted to be connected to the chock in communication with the port, and an angled leg adapted to be connected to the hose. A breather valve in the conduit is adapted to admit ambient air into the conduit when oil is flowing through the conduit from the port to and through the hose, and is adapted to automatically close in the event that the conduit is filled with oil occasioned by a reduction in the flow of oil through the hose. |
