It will let air into the tank so the gas will flow better.
If you have a sealed can and try to suck out a fluid, little if any will come out. If you poke a hole in the top of the can every drop will come out. Air replaces the fluid as it comes out. Most newer cars have the pipe hooked to an "Evaporative Canister" (or Charcoal Canister) to absorb the fumes of the gas as it expands and contracts and then the "fumes" are sucked in by the intake manifold to keep the air clean.

Why is there diesel coming out of tank breather pipe On a 97 non turbo diesel van?
Diesel coming out of the tank breather pipe on a 1997 non-turbo diesel van may indicate a few issues. It could be due to overfilling the fuel tank, causing the excess fuel to escape through the breather. Alternatively, a blocked or malfunctioning tank vent can create pressure that forces fuel out. Lastly, a faulty fuel cap or damaged breather hose might also contribute to this problem.

Obviously the tank has to be removed. 4 TIMES 13MM SOCKET BOLTS..REMOVE THEM This drops the tank down. Fuel filler and breather pipe(next to each other)..remove them. Then the fuel delivery/return pipes off the sender. and fuel gauge wire off the sender. pull the tank out and the sender just screws out. Money saved on repairs can then be wasted in the pub or betting shop...;)
What are the functions of Breather Conservator and Ventpipe?
A conservator is an oil tank, located above the transformer, whose function is to ensure that the oil level remains above the transformer, while allowing it to expand and contract with temperature. The breather/vent pipe allows air to be displaced from the conservator when the level rises, and to draw back in when the oil level falls.
