Default Oil catch cans

I suspect my greasy plugs and sticky internals in the intake are being caused by my valve cover breather setup.

Ive got non baffled covers, one with just a breather and the other a breather that has a vacuum line running to the intake manifold. No pcv valve at all.

So my options are:

Buy new higher rocker covers with baffles (as there's bugger all clearance above the rockers now).

Squeeze in a baffled gommet ( just disovered those from Moroso)

Put a catch can in the vac line between the breather and intake.

Your thoughts on whats gone work best or any other ideas....do i need a pcv
valve in there somewhere?

Do you need the vacuum the draw out the blowby or just ditch that and let the catch can vent to atmosphere?

Thanks
