You need some kind of trap to stop the oil coming back up for sure.

I guess the water/oil filter should work in either direction

Hopefully the issue is fixed, I had a new bush machined up and I fitted all new seals to the locker when rebuilding the diff yesterday. If oil does get pushed up again it will come out of the solenoid vent before getting into the EAS supply. I will fit the pressure regulator in my last pic, $5 on ebay, not the one with the oiler and water separator that I already had

I did a similar thing too. I plumbed into the eas just behind the the air tank.
I've set the regulator to 90 psi.

OK. The large unit, The left side is the regulator/dryer. Air passes through the reg and drops pressure and then into the dryer. The pressure drop aids condensation of any moisture. The right is an oiler, not good for spraying, good for tooling.

Never seen any water in the drier on mine. Guess the locker doesn't have much flow/volume of air for the drier to catch much and yeh the pressure drop helps in reducing condensation anyway.
