Default help identify things on valve cover please!

ok, im so confused about this valve cover. i was told its a JDM Integra Type-R valve cover, first off can somebody please verify if that is correct? Second what is up with this random hose going from the valve cover to the intake mani? Third should i have a hose going from the port next to the oil cap putting the air back into the intake system? thanks!

just to verify, type-r valve covers do not have the "H" logo on the exhaust cam portion?

so i think i figured out that its a custom made pcv system. i am going to put a filter on the nipple next to the oil filler cap to prevent dirt to get in, and also if that white thing really is the pcv valve, any ideas as to what vehicle i shop for a valve for?

if i jsut put a filter on the nipple next to the oil filler cap and not recirc it into the intake with a hose like it is on a stock engine, is it going to negatively affect the engine at all? i dont mind having an extra hose if its going to help the engine (such as with fuel efficiency or anything). thanks!

wayyy too much work to shave off the H just to look jdm.... anyway go to a parts store ask for a honda pvc valve.. putting a fliter on it i guess will help.. your not oging to suck anything in through there.. if anything its gonna squrt oil out...... you really dont need any kind of filter tho

OK i figured it out. the actual pcv valve is not the white piece, its the metal piece between the 2 hoses that run between the intake mani and the valve cover. shook the metal piece and it rattles, so nvm found the pcv valve and turns out its still good. still not sure about if i should run a tube from the other breather next to the oil filler cap to the intake. &lt;-- help?
