Well. If that's a sealed catch can, under boost the check valve closes and the line off the valve cover is going to a sealed can with no vacuum. You might as well remove the line off the valve cover and plug it is that's the case.
On the flip side, if the catch can has a breather cap on it, there's zero reason to have a line from the manifold to the can, because it will just be pulling air from the breather cap and not from the valve cover.
Either way it's wrong, and the only situation I see it being right is if the can is sealed and the manifold never sees positive pressure and the check valve never closes, which isn't the case here.

I used to have issues with my Elite Engineering sealed can above 12psi on my Trick Turbo setup. After a pull, I would smell burning oil and the dipstick would be pushed out a little. Best thing to do is run a Mighty Mouse PCV type can and drill out the driver's side valve cover orifice for better venting.
