Default Hughes intake PCV valve placement

I have the Hughes airgap and wondering if it's okay that the pcv valve only oils half the engine. The hughes intake divides into two just below the TB riser.

Also when measuring vacuum should I hook hoses to both sides or does it matter?

I have the intake off and may tap some new ports in the TB riser if that would be better location.

What you guys think?

Vacuum should be equal on both sides so it shouldn't matter. As far as the PCV, mine is the same way and it runs great.

Alright cool then I won't worry bout it, I just thought it helped oil the upper piston rings or something like that. Thanks
