valve cover vents on a 502 EFI Gen V
Where do the valve cover vents connect on a 502 Efi gen V
The vents connect together with a hose from the 2 valve covers.
But where does that connect after,
There is nothing on the intake plenum
Do i need a PVC valve, or a breather?
there is a lot of fumes and oil coming out of there
Some one told me that is should connect to the throttle body
but the only fitting there is the one for the hose from mechanical fuel pump
thank you

flame arrestor on my 502 efi is silver mesh, and its empty inside, there is no fitting anywhere,
on one of the Merc parts website, i found a pic of this
does that go inside the silver mesh flame arrestor , or is used
instead of the silver mesh flame arrestor.
so is that where the Valve cover vent hose connect to?
