Pics of oil catch can

Anyone got pictures of where they installed their catch can on their engine? I'm building my own and just want to be sure I've got it installed in the right place. Thanks.

It keeps oil out of the intake on the vette and this car seems to suffer from the same problem (dirty throttle bodies and oily residue in upper plenum) so ya, I do. Besides, for $20 what's it gonna hurt.

I have a 20. catch can.. sitting in my garage. I had it on my g35 coupe and thought about using for my G37, but honestly no need for it.

There will be no bling from mine. Just simple parts from lowes. If it'll keep oil out of my intake then that's all I care about. I just need to know which hoses it goes on.

it will connect to the passenger side of the intake, where the tube connects to the pcv valve.

I myself have the lowes 20.00 catch can.
