It's very simple.
Put the separator in line between the PCV and the IM. That's it. Mine almost fills up about every 6-8 months.
There is no need to put one between the breather line that goes from the block to the elbow, you won't catch anything (I've tried tongue.gif).
This reminds me, I took pics of this a long time ago when I did mine, and never made the thread..I should do that...

Should be between the breather and the intake. The PCV is more protected from liquids, but the breather is just a hole. You'll get alot more oil from your breather and the IM/TB/Intake will stay cleaner if you filter the breather instead of the PCV.

I've actually seen the oil in my breather line, hence the reason I want to put it there. I imagine that since I can see oil there, I can catch some. I haven't pulled off my PCV recently, so I'm not sure how much oil gets through there, but I should check on that too. Depending on how bad each one is, I may end up putting two catch cans on. Has this ever been done?
