Default Trying to find very small breather tank

Has anyone seen a very small (3" diameter, 3" tall) breather tank anywhere? I need something to use for a rear axle vent that will just have a fitting on the bottom for an inlet and a filtered breather on the top. I don't have much room to mount and don't need much volume really. Everything I can find is at least 10" tall which just won't fit well anywhere.

I already have a Parson's/Norris breather tank for my fuel tank mounted in the trunk but it would be an ordeal to get another one in there now and would rather just go with something underneath for the axle.

May have to build one out of steel since I don't feel like buying a spool of al mig wire for one weld to modify a can.

Allstar makes a really tiny one.. like 2x3 inches with a tiny little breather. I use it as a catch/vent for my diff.

This is the smallest I could find. I use this on my auto transmission:

The AllStar that Steve mentioned might be slightly smaller. Other than that, maybe you could use a fuel filter.

Is this the one? They have both 1.5" and 1.75" ones by the look of it. Should do the trick anyway...thanks!
