Hello, Looking for vent filters and colored tubing for the fuel tank vent and the valve cover vent on a predator 212. I picked up this 5/16 push in type filter, was hoping to connect both vents to this filter by using a plastic or metal T. The stock fuel tank vent hose appears to be about 1/4" and the stock valve cover vent hose appears to be about 1/2". The push in filter would work on the valve cover with the use of a clamp but too large for the fuel tank. Wondering if I can find a T to connect vents to filter. I guess I could always buy a second 5/16 push in filter, might make it easier. Would like to use red fuel line or tubing. Suggestions of places I might find these things or different ideas for venting welcomed. Thank You.

So do places like Summit or Jegs, or most likely any motorcycle shop.
You can get plastic tees that have different size ends, check any auto parts store. You can also look there for vents, I used a small valve cover breather on mine. Teed to the valve cover and another one on the old governor hole with one of the different sized tees for the hoses to it.

The Uni vent filters look good. I like that they're compact in size as compared to standard "breather" vents that're widely available.
I wouldn't connect the valve cover and fuel tank vent to the same filter with a T-fitting as you mentioned. I'd prefer to just go ahead and use two separate filters. There are cheaper alternatives as other members have posted about in similar threads. Use the search feature to look at their suggestions.
Here's the set-up I used on my Predator:
