valve cover tube on intake - use it or seal it

my upper charge pipe is a ebay cai - i'm wondering can i used the tube where a tube goes onto and connects to the valve cover for my boost gauge or maybe to the vac port on the bov or is that a bad idea?

block it off, your boost gauge will not read vaccum if its hooked up to your charge pipes

grind it off and weld it shut, or JB weld it shut. put an oil breather on the valve cover.

Or run a slashcut in your exhaust. Just don't expect to pass any emissions with the slash-cut.
