It is fine to have some oil in the catch can. That is the whole purpose of the catch can. Without it the oil would end up in your intake.

Yes the endyn ones are different. they have a small tube in the middle ..anti suction tube. The purpose of a oil catch can is to catch oil....

I can't really see how someone would think it would do anything other than that.
I mean c'mon "oil catch can"...the name says it all.

i have the stock honda nipples and they just let out to much oil, and this must be a problem or the endyn ones would not be diffrent, i know the can is to catch oil there is just alot of it.

It will still get oil in the catch can, but yes it will drain back. So we can both be correct.
