I'm surprised no one else mentioned this, before the era of pollution controls, every car and truck had a similar setup, hanging down from the engine to vent blowby from the crankcase into the air stream under the vehicle, if idling in traffic, you'd smell it. (Setup was called a "road draft tube".)
Then along came "PCV" (Positive Crankcase Ventilation) and the oil mist and stink was piped into the intake manifold and burned along with the fuel in the engine, the exhaust could still stink, though.
Nowadays, automotive engine tolerances are tighter to limit oil leaving the engine through the exhaust and the stink is cleaned up by the "cat".
Pardon me for digressing, but folks that have been only around modern vehicles (which would apparently apply to the O.P.) are unaware of how stinky stuff used to be!
