Emission tubing routing

Gentelmen I have a question about this photo? I know it isn't v8 related but I am trying to help a friend of mine and a new and slightly frustrated mg owner. In the picture do you see any issues with the way the emission tubing is routed? I like how the gas tank vent goes through the carbon canister and then into the valve cover then out of the PCV port of the engine and then into the intake or exhaust I'm not sure. First off is this a good solution and is the PCV port going into the intake or the exhaust?

Thank you for your time and input Gentalmen

Dave

David, same as the other thread, post this at the MG Experience board (http://www.mgexperience.net/phorum/list.php?1) and you'll get a quick answer. Also let them know what problems you're chasing & you'll get good advice. That board is to the stock MG what this one is to engine swaps.

.....and the PCV vent tube needs to go into the intake manifold so crankcase gases/fumes can be burnt off.
