Art,
The PCV is to remove blowby from the crankcase and burn it in the engine.
In olden times, cars had a tube from the crankcase to the bottom of the
chassis. The end of the tube was cut with an upward slope to the rear. As the car
traveled down the road, air flowing over the tapered cut on the tube created
a slight vacuum which pulled vapors from the crankcase and dumped them into
the atmosphere. Often as much smoke came from the tube as came from the
exhaust pipe.
I know about that because I had one those dual smokers.
Have fun,
