An oil catch can is used in turbo applications, or high-performance race applications where excessive blow-by (leakage past the piston rings) of air and fuel vapor occurs. This creates a positive pressure in the crankcase. Engine manufactures have placed a valve on the engine block which releases this pressure. This valve is known as a PCV (Positive Crankcase Ventilation) valve. During engine operation, blow-by gases, as well as oil mist from the rotating components of the engine, pass through the PCV valve and are routed back into the intake for the engine to burn off. However, some of the oil mist and other products settle along the engine intake and over time form a "gunk." The oil catch can collects the oil mist and condenses the fuel vapors while allowing "cleaner" gases to be passed back into the intake. Typically the blow-by gasses are passed through a wire mesh, which give the vapor droplets something to adhere to. Since the oil catch cans condense the vapor portion of the gasses, they will need to be drained periodically of all the oil, fuel and other contaminants..SJ.

Mess with the standard system and you loose the positive crank case ventilation system. Yes people do it but ideally you want this system in place to clean out the acidic air from your crank case. Just venting to a catch can won't do it. Up to you but I wouldn't bother. Your intercooler having some oil vapour in it is fine. Not ideal but fine. If you have loads of oil then you have a problem and you should look at fixing it rather then fixing the symptoms.

I will take that on board.. theres not loads of oil its just in a few pipes. thanks for the advice helps loads

When you can provide a coherent explanation of the PCV system, how it works and what your opinion based on those things actually is I might take that as something more then a retarded comment.
