Help installing a 3 port ARC oil catch tank

I searched for oil catch tank installs but all I could find was for 2 port (in-out) catch tanks.

I just bought an ARC oil catch tank that has 3 ports.
2 are for incoming valvecover ports and one output port.

The two input hoses are
1) from the PCV system from the back of the valvecover
2)the usual front right crankcase vent.

First question:
What do I do with the PCV valve? completely remove it?

Second question:
Also There are 2 ways that the output port can be connected.

1)Should i plug the intake manifold pcv end with a plastic bolt and link the output catch tank port with a hose back to the air intake pipe?
2)Shoud I plug the air intake pipe and link the output hose of the cath tank to the intake manifold?

Which one is better?

thanks guys

you put the hose from the CC to the PC valve.
You can plug/cap the one on the intake mani.
I just route the output hose from the CC under the car. zip tie it somewhere so it doesn't move. ok?

thanks so much for your reply

In the pic I can see the 2 hoses and I can see that the output goes under the car

However, I cant see where the PCV valve fits in?
The hoses I can see is obviously the front right crankcase vent and the intake pipe.please explain

thanks!
