I'm sure I'll be in the minority here, but if the EGR is disabled (as it should be on these engines), what's the harm in letting the engine consume it's own oil vapor? It'll never build up in the intake manifold or create the tar-like deposits that the EGR soot creates. The oil vapor deposits in the intake manifold cause no harm to anything in the intake system or the engine, adding a catch can is just something else you have to maintain.
