You tapped a hole in the manifold? If it has a nipple, cap it with a rubber vacuum cap.

Just route it over to the PCV hose goin from the intake to the valve cover. put a T in it and it wont look goofy with a plug on the intake.

yes its on the passenger side but you are correct its somewhat on top, but the nozzle shaped platic sticks almost straight out horizontally. I cant find a cap thats about the right size, I could tap it for a 1/4 npt fitting and plug that I suppose
