Default Check Valve for Catch Can Clean Side

Looking for some recommendations as to what you guys use for a check valve on the clean side of a forced induction catch can setup. I just recently purchased a mighty mouse pcv style can and have also just installed my ati procharger kit. My plan is to run the dirty side from one of the valve covers to the can, then the can to the intake manifold. and run the "clean line" from the other valve cover to the procharger intake hat. This will all be with -8an line. I see a lot of people saying they use check valves on the clean side and just wanted some check valve recommendations.

Thanks.

I used one from Summit, but it was 6 AN-I thought the MM setup had a ck valve, or one avail.

The MM can has a built in pcv. A lot of the diagrams I have seen people make on here feature a pcv, but they still say they use a check valve on the clean side that doesn't connect to the catch can at all.

My setup is kind of budget, I go from a PCV in the VC to a cheap oil sep, then to a ck valve, then the TB.
