If it's what I think you are referring to.. the -16 is an external oil return, not explicitly part of his PCV in the way this sort of block vent is.
No, it is a vent.

Those aren't oil returns. Look at a head, that is hooked to the "stand pipe" only.
LS-D, Bastard is correct that is into the vent tunnel under the intake cam. this one is in the head and not the block tho.
That will be a tight fit under the intake.

Bogus you've saved me some time in the garage . I was planning on digging through the block to see where I could add some more vents. Ill probably add one more to the front cover where my balance shaft block off goes.
Never Wet. Thought about doing this as well but with lack of testing its durability against heat cycling I decided against it. Thought it would be good to spray on the crank pre balancing.

What do you think about using this idea but pluming the vent into the exhaust so the exhaust is constantly drawing pressure out?
Looks like something I need to do since my block is needing a build anyway. Why not just run the line to the intake pipe for scavenging? The exhaust thing seems like a long way to go and having to route the hose around the exhaust manifold or whatever else. Would think the intake pipe method would work better. Or is it the fear of blowing oil into the turbo/intercooler/etc.?
Old post I know but it's a good read and maybe deserves a bump.Been done with success for years by muscle car guys.

I've been thinking about using this as a 3rd vent, do this and one of the vented oil caps the guy on here sells. Go from the oil cap to the exhaust.
