On my 04 Titan, my stock axle vent looked like all the pictures I've seen. I recently bought an 05 and am getting ready to do the vent mod and I see what you're seeing in the attached picture. It's like the guy who owned it before me just put some sort of plug there. I'm about to pop it off and do the mod, but wow. Here's to hoping it doesn't blow up in my face.

Nope, that is a factory plug, they forgot to put the breather in, happens more than you think.

Wow. I mean there is no hole or anything. No sure how any pressure was getting out, but there are no signs of leaking at the axle seals. Oh well, mod kit is done now...

Looks like something was venting, judging from the oil stain around the plug. Ouch!

Yeah, it definitely was! At least it wasn't leaking from the axle seals...

Seen that a lot so much for Nissan QC!!! Or the DA mechanic who changed the axle post failure.
