Yes, the second to the last picture from above shows the petcock.
I drove the truck for the first time with the "bling" plate and my oil separator. When I parked it there were a few drips up front. Quickly realized that I had forgotten to close the petcock!
Guess it's working already. The breather is still dry.

Good luck.
PVC doesn't like heat. That stuff will distort badly if the oil temps get too high. With luck, it'll melt and leak without catching fire.
Do not move it to the turbo side of the engine or it'll die even faster.

It's on the cool side out of the way. I looked at the properties of PVC carefully before I made it. Should last a long time at the temps it will see and having no pressure. Long hoses, condensing wire pack, it should be totally fine.
