fwiw, i have an 04 Z06 and did the air tool filter mod and it has already picked up some oil. so the answer for the 04s is definitely a yes.

If 1/2 inch is all it can handle, then i guess I either keep after it better or get a better catch can.

I removed the filter when i installed my air compressor oil seperator and i forgot about it for a month or so and the oil was 3/4 of the way up the glass...so remove the filter, i had read before to remove the filter and this may have been the reason why...
