It's probably going to a catchcan... some people tap another hole in the valve cover so the engine can breath better since LS block doesnt have the PCV system...

You are correct about the catch can, however some LS blocks do have the PCV system. My 92 LS block has the system, I am not sure what year they removed them but my friends 98 does not have it.

i don`t know what happened but i remember that i answered your question... don`t know what happened to the post.. but i`m gonna answer it again...
that line used to be attached to the header so the head gases can escape well...
but we noticed that oil was being wasted into that line too, cause oil pressure was killer... so he decided to deattach it from the header and take it to a home made oil catch can....
and the rex is a 89 si.
hope that answers all your quest.. so far...
btw in the pic the line was still attached to the header... now it goes to the opposite side to the catch can.
notice the home made air filter tube
oh i almost forget... the radiator isn`t in need cause the car runs on alcohol and for drag purposes only so the car doesn`t overheat anyways...
