[TPR] Valve cover breathers

If I remove the stock air cleaner from my 351C engine in the Pantera, in 
order to install a K&N drop-base air cleaner with filter and filter 
top...  I will have two hoses that go nowhere.
- oil fill cap breather hose to stock air cleaner
- charcoal canister vent tube to stock air cleaner

What's a guy to do?

I see there are some nice breathers available but what is the best 
recommended solution to my predicament?  Should I get a simple push-in 
breather that I can put in the oil fill cap?  Is there a better breather 
solution that can replace the cap?  How did -you- do it?

Then, what about that pesky charcoal canister?  Should I simply remove 
it and place it gently on a shelf with a tag for future restoration?  If 
I do that, what do I do with the vent hose from the fuel tank?

I feel like such a novice.
