I don't think he needs a baffle since its not a breather thank.

why no breather anyways?

So is that just supposed to vent out the small hole at the bottom?

Does it not need somewhere for air to flow? I wouldn't think oil vapor would flow into a sealed box very well? I think I'm missing something.

pcv line goes to one side, other goes back to intake pre-turbo. oil falls down, not up

seems pretty simple of a concept
