This is probably what you want,

To put an image to the left of your breadcrumb li links:

.breadcrumbs li a::before {
    content: "";
    display: block;
    background: url('/img/breadcrumb-icon.png') no-repeat;
    width: 20px;
    height: 20px;
    float: left; /*icon on the left*/
    margin: 0 6px 0 0; /*margin on the right so there is a gap between your icon and link*/
}

If you want it on the other side try float:right;margin: 0 0 0 6px; or use ::after should get you part of the way
