That looks like a compressor inline filter.

It seems LT5 PCV system blows oil, especially at high rpm, resulting in oily intake plenum as it gets sucked back into intake.

Oil catch in essence intercepts oil vapor and eliminate or minimize the amount getting ingested.

That is not a bad price. Filter alone (you need fittings also) goes for $25-30.
Thanks for the info.

Am I wrong in thinking there is no model specific to oil catch can?
As long as fittings can be sorted out, in essence, you have inlet and outlet that gets spliced between PCV outlet to intake inlet. Right?

Correct with some type of metal substrate material to keep the oil in the catch can once caught. All the fellers here seem to be adapting their own.
