Not sure what there is to see... just cut the silicone line that runs to the IM and put your check valve in. You might want to buy a spare length of tubing and cut that, so that you can save the nice hose that comes with the kit.
I run one with my Mishi can, but it's a home brew setup I put together before the kit was available.

I'd like to see it and get more info because I'm not too familiar with check valves. I called Mishi to ask if they could recommended a check valve to use with their oil catch can, but they said they weren't able to offer any sort of aftermarket recommendation. They also mentioned that the stock PCV check valve should be good at stock boost levels.

Hi there!
That information is correct, we do not recommend adding a check valve to our kit because we found that in our testing the stock valve is more than sufficient with stock boost, as you mentioned. Some chose to add an aftermarket check valve in addition to the stock valve which can be done by adding it to our existing hoses. Of course you are welcome to add an aftermarket check valve, we just can't speak to the quality of any aftermarket product that we haven't tested ourselves. I am sure there are more than a few good options to choose from if you would like to run one. Let me know if you have any other questions!
Thanks!

I was also deciding between Damond and Mishi as I didn't wan't to cut the PCV hose. I was leaning toward the Damond due to price but found a distributor selling the Mishi OCC for the pre-sale price! I was a bit wary of it and scrutinized part numbers but ordered it on Fri and ended up having to call them on Monday as I didn't get much communication. They told me that it would ship Tues and be here either today or Thursday. I'll provide an update when it comes in.
Hope this helps those on the fence.
