Go from the valve cover vent to the intake tube. It doesn't matter if you don't have a flat spot or not. Just connect it the best way you know how..
Mine after swap

Yes, plug the hole on the intake. That hole is meant for the valley cover breather line that comes off GenIV's valley cover.

Tap the intake tube and run a vacuum tube from the passenger valve cover to it.

This is the only pic I have and it's hard to tell, but you can see where I ran the vacuum line to the intake tube.



Here's the kit I used. Spectre Part# 9712

so for this, all you did was drill a hole in the intake tube and use the correct fitting? any leaks?

Zero leaks, just make sure the hole is drilled to the correct size.
