Level 7 oil cap breather with an fitting?

I was scrolling on IG and I saw something that caught my eye. I have never seen this before and I was asking the other day about venting options on my SR. It's an oil cap that has an fittings on it! Has anyone seen these or heard of these before ?

That's what I didn't understand. It looks like it would have to be clocked for our application because the cap already sits the same way when it's all the way down
