PCV "Y" Connector
I've searched extensively and am unable to locate this connector. Does anyone know where I can find this? I know I can use a "T" but I like the "Y".
I'm installing the Mighty Mouse Catch Can and need to merge the auxiliary tank vent and passenger side valve cover line (rear tank vent). I'm going to use the one pictured to merge them but need a second to split the merged line out to the two connections on the passenger side valve cover. Truly appreciate the pencil line drawing someone posted on the proper line routing... sure don't want a front or rear seal issue.
I do have an additional question - does anyone have a check valve in the line providing reference for the BOV and connection from the can to the intake port? If you do, which way is checked?

Well, spent some time researching yesterday. Can't find the "Y" but of course I can buy a hose assembly and salvage it from there for ~$50.

I prefer to install a threaded AN fitting in the center of the passenger side valve cover to eliminate my already broken connector... (first time removal - who knows where that piece ended up - ugh) like this video shows.
Not a fan of the rainbow colored hose... but to each their own.
Would still like feedback on check valves for PCV if anyone is using them. I ordered these but need to make sure I install them in the proper places with the right flow direction.
And I found this video which seems very cool for building these plastic vacuum lines... (just sharing; only about 1,200 views).
Though I would still like to do all the lines in AN fittings and a nylon covered hose. That would mean I don't need the "Y" as I'd use AN "Y" connector which obviously drives up the price of this whole system a bunch but it does look so much nicer.
I appreciate the views, would love some feedback. Thanks.

the wild system is 100psi boost checking standard so you are good to go
on in-house installs we just warm the nylon hose up a bit and just shove it on in that situation, but that tool is slick!
i lost one of those ears off the passenger clip in 2016 when i tore my brand new c7z apart to develop this system
5 years and 1500ish hp later its still in there lol
