Default What to plug and where to route

Trying to find a definitive answer on what to plug, and what to run to my soon to be here (7 weeks later) RX catch can.

5.3 single turbo
5.3 valve covers
ls6 valley

***Still waiting on my catch can, so I have it vented to atmosphere right now using filters.

Current setup:
LS6 valley looped up to TB
Driver side valve cover (OEM PCV valve) has hose on it with filter
Passenger
Passenger side valve cover - rear elbow plugged, front has hose to TB
Filter in Oil cap (I know this is needed even with the can)

crankcrase was overpressurizing before I added the filters, seems fine now, but obviously it's illegal in some states, and not ideal. Just looking for some info on the best way to route everything.

I have a -10an from both valve covers to my vented catch can, nothing in the valley cover on mine.
