Default Installing an Oil Catch can the correct way on a B20/LS Valve cover?

I got my Greddy Catch can and installed it. I'm not sure if this is how your suppose to connect it? Because for the LS, the postive crank valve is right on the valve cover instead of on the block like on the B16/GSR motors.

So I THINK this is the right way. Because I see some oil getting sucked into the catch can and clean air going back into the intake manifold:

stops oil from getting sucked from your valve cover into your intake manifold.

if you dont have one or a breather look at the inside of yout intake manifold or the back of your throttle plate. mine was covered with an oily deposit at 13k miles. you dont want that getting in the combustion area.
