Crankcase breather

I've just bought a 924 (for the registration plate). The engine appears to me to have a blocked crankcase breather. Can someone tell me where this pipe actually is so that I can clear it and get the engine breathing properly before I sell it on cheap for spares. Although the car would make a track day car. I can't drive it on the road as it is manual. [:)]
Cheers,
 
If it's a 2.0 litre, the breather pipe exits the crankcase horizontally, at the rear of the engine, from the spherical appendage on the block, under the coolant pipe just where it bifurcates (splits in to two legs). It goes straight out towards the nearside for about 70 mm then bends 90deg, to move forward along the side of the inlet manifold support. Just before it joins the underside of the rigid section of inlet ducting it turns up and right about another 45 deg where it attaches via jubilee clips.
 
Thanks for the info, will have a look tomorrow if it stops raining, it is bucketing down here at present. Any of you guys want some water down South?
Started to break the car today, various bits that I can use on my 924S. Will place in the For Sale area when I get the documents and have transferred the registration.
Cheers,
