just curious why didn't you use a T piece and just the one filter to keep things a little less cluttered however the filter is a good idea ive only seen the breather pipes with a little kink up the top to keep the dust out.
87 targa brumby (Neglected),
92 targa brumby (weekend runabout),
97 Lifted Outback (Dailey drive),
05 outback safety (Too cheap to pass up),
90 model liberty (was to be scrapped instead sold to workmate)
+ others.

One filter is for the front diff and the other is for the g/box.Being a auto you need to so tranny fluid and diff fluid don't get mixed.

Looks good, and the filters are a good idea. I've only ever seen the pipe kinked or with the little rocker cap on it.
