Catch can install on this single tubo setup

I've just setup an oil catch can on this single turbo setup, as you can see on in the diagram I've run one line to the oil filler neck ( where PCV used to be ) and the other to a nipple that has already been pre-fabbed into the pipe between the turbo intake and filter. Since this is the only nipple on the intake ( stock twins have 2 ) I've had to use a T-join to ensure both vacume lines are still getting suction from the turbo.
Now i know the one I installed is going to the catch can , can anyone tell me where the other vacume line ( red colored one ) will be going? I looked and its simple going onto a metal hose, but where does that go? and would teeing a line into it for the catch can cause any problems?

The only problem with this is that the engine sucks all that junk blow-by back into the turbo, IC , TB, UIM, LIM, and engine. It gums up everthing.

Run both hoses from the oil filler neck to the catch can on the sides. Then have the top vent underneath the car. F*** being green!
