I didn't think a PCV valve would remove oil vapor from being sucked into the manifold.

Frank, always use a PCV. It helps to keep some of that expensive light weight oil inside the engine..(No rags needed)
I doubt you would still pull any vacuum at the end of a run though.That's why you need the header hoses and valves.
Of course,..not legal in Stock

My primary interest in this subject it to maximize ring seal and of course not waste any of those valuable shop rags!

I wanted to try an old style road draft tube. Never got a chance. Of course it wouldn't do anything until you're moving, but I thought it might be worth experimenting a bit.
