Mine fills up pretty quick too. The air comes out of your valve cover and enters the back of your plenum. So the arrow should be pointing toward the passenger side.

Yes it does actually, it will not work right if the arrow is not pointed the right way. Make sure that the Arrow runs with the tube that runs out of the valve cover.
example: [valve cover]-h-o-s-e--==>>-h-o-s-e Kinda sh!ty explaination but I tried. lol
==>> = oil separator

Mine is from the valve cover>>>>Hose(Oil Catcher Can)Hose>>>>>>Behind the blower. I only drove a few hundred miles and it collected some oil but not much. My arrow points towards the firewall....
