Default PCV routing question

all right guys, did my H/C swap and have ran into another surpise, when I swapped from my LS1 perimeter valve covers to the PRC 5.3 heads, they are the centerbolt style, So I had to drop 42$ on coil brackets to mount the coils. Now I am noticing that the PVC nipples are different. ON my LS1 covers I had a nipple on the rear of the drivers side, and one on the rear of the passenger side valve cover plus one on the front of the pass valve cover.

the center bolt covers I bought have the port on the rear of the drivers, and a port on the front of the passengers but I dont have the one on the rear of the passenger side. WHas up??
I Know about the ls6 valley cover has a port, but I dont have that valley cover, so what can I do. Is it really gonna make any difference if I just use the one port on the rear of the drivers side cover to run my PCV system. any experiece would be appreciated. there have been a few pricey surprise costs to this head swap and I would really like to get this done. Thanks

should work just fine running the lines with just one "outlet"

i redid my PCV system so that its pulling air thru the passenger front port, down through the crankcase, and OUT through the rear driver side port.

should work fine.
