Run a hose from your valve cover fitting to the catch can.
If the catch can has two fitting vent the other one to atmosphere with a little filter to stop blowing shit all around the engine bay.
The existing hose from valve cover to your intake needs to be plugged up.
Fill the catch can with stainless steel wool/scouring pad to help absorb the gunk.
Empty it when half full.
Do not plumb back into intake.
Rev that engine hard and worry no more about oil mist in manifold.
