Breather on one side, PCV valve on the other. PCV system not only reduces pollutants dumped into the air from the engine, it also draws a slight vacuum on the crankcase, which aids with ring seal. Two points in its favor so far as I am concerned.

It does have a PVC valve.... It has PCV on one side, a breather filter on each side, and obviously an oil cap.
Sounds like the stock system is the way to go, I may look at changing it back.

Update
Just a quick update:
I got a bit restless and decided I couldn't wait for the weekend to take a proper look at this so I cut a corner and decided to see if I could see anything when I looked down through the open throttle body, I took a few pictures with my camera and this is what I saw.
Needless to say it looks like you guys were right about the plenum!
Whilst I have this apart are there any other bits that you would recommend to change (just to save me the hassle of having to do it at a later date)??
