It looks like that in your setup. Also your hose from the oil filler side does it goto the valve cover ?  Then it must be a breather as well.  Wolf’s diagram is pretty detailed description of venting

I got tired of my driver's side carb getting dirty from the oil so I eliminated the breather to carb hose. Having an electric fuel pump, I have a 1/2" line out of the block off plate and a 3/8" line from my filler both going to a breather/catch can that vents under the car. 

According to the Samba brain trust that's adequate PCV for a 2L motor, but I've noticed a few drips out my valve covers after long 80 mph blasts on the freeway. I'm ok with that.
