Here is my setup. Simple, but does anyone see a problem with it?

if your catchcan isn't baffled, you'll get oil fouling your intake charge and possibly causing pre-detonation.
the block could also do with a bit more venting than out of those two small holes...

On my car.
The valve cover has two breather holes.
One connects back to the Manifold with a one way check valve.
The other is just vented to open air with a filter like the one in the pic bolted onto it.
If you say there is going to be oil going to the manifold then maybe I should just vent both holes to open air.
The filter is mounted on a length of tube. Standing up at an angle.
What ever oil gets thrown up just drains down back via the tube. Or at least it must cause the papper type filter like the one in the pic is still clean and dry.
