Sure you can use a breather, and it does work, but eventually you get blowby due to rings/valves being not sealed properly because no vacuum draws the air out of the crankcase.
i'd like to know more about using valve cover breathers but i got lost when you mentioned crankcase. I always thought the crankcase pertains to PCV or perhaps I was not aware of crankcase breathers until now..(?)

it's a long complicated debate and analysis about the breather filter...

just DON'T run a filter, connect that hose to the turbo intake (where the air filter connects to your turbo compressor)

you'll be fine... add a catch can if your motor is like 150k or more and probably burning oil.. if you got a brand new block like me, it's not really necessary... only about 5k km on my block/head so it's good

I think you should post this as a sticky all the information, reason why we use them and reasons why we shouldn't, I have terrible blowby so I use a breather tank, when I change my rings I will do it right. or list the all the comlications in a separate post.
