Shouldn't an AOS act like a catch-can that takes oil out of the blow-by gasses to drain back to the pan and then either release the oil-less gas to atmosphere or send it back to the intake to be burnt?

We've pounded on this topic quite a bit already... especially here.

Are we missing something about how this stuff works, because I'd be concerned running this AOS on anything that might have significant crank pressure from blow-by or anything that's going to see significant lateral Gs.
I assume one of the lines, prolly the middle one, goes to the turbo inlet. I assume the head lines get tee'd together. This device is supposed to let the oil drop out and flow down the filler tube.
