Valve covers Question

I ran a PCV breather filter on a non-baffled valve cover and I'm here to tell you it's a terrible idea lol. Oil pumps right through the filter material and leaks onto the valve covers/headers.

I changed over to a solid PCV breather that is supposed to be vented back to the carb, but it's currently venting to atmosphere. I just need to run the line, but I don't want to risk pulling oil into the carb. I may pull the cover and install a baffle to reduce the risk before I connect the PCV line.

Regardless, I definitely recommend installing baffles if they're not there.
