The engine core includes a compressor section, a combustor, a diffuser structure, a diffuser plenum and a separator. The combustor is arranged within the diffuser plenum. The combustor includes a combustion chamber and a combustor wall between the combustion chamber and the diffuser plenum. The combustor wall includes a dilution aperture extending through the combustor wall to the combustion chamber. The diffuser structure includes a first diffuser passage and a second diffuser passage radially offset from the first diffuser passage. The first diffuser passage fluidly couples the compressor section to the diffuser plenum. The second diffuser passage fluidly couples the compressor section to the separator. The separator fluidly couples the second diffuser passage to the dilution aperture.
