I may have to take pics of this to explain it better but normally i've only seen them run off the valve cover or at least one line run off the valve cover not both off the back of the block.
some insight on this would be awesome.
Just trying to clean up the engine bay a little and get rid of some extra non-needed hoses if possible.
yea... a catch can is supposed to be used for the crank case pressure release. Usually there is a hose running from the valve cover to the intake pipe. You put the catch can in the middle of that line so that it catches any oil from being blown into your intake and gunking everything up and fouling out plugs.
