Default double check pcv routing modified lq4

Going to cnc up some valve covers for my 02 lq4 using an ls6 intake. Looking at doing the ls6 valley cover so I can remove the pcv setup from the valve covers along with relocacing the coils so I have clean uncluttered valve covers.I have no port on the passengers side valve cover, only fresh air intake nipple. I have the pcv port on the drivers side only, this is for the stock ones that is.

So is my thinking right on this; the port from the ls6 valley cover goes to a catch can, then back up to the front of the intake and that is all? Need to make sure before I finish doing the CAD work on the covers.

ps
since this is an 02, I should not have to notch the block for the ls6 valley cover, correct?

With the ls6 valley cover it runs to the catch can then back to the intake manifold. Correct.

Mine is an 01 and i had to notch the block, it's not a big job as long as you've got a good cutting disk

Have to check the block number to see if you'll have to notch it. You also need the fresh air inlet going from the TB to the passenger side valve cover.
