Gotta keep that catch can drained. I’ve used a small manual suction pump from Napa and appropriately sized hose to drain it when I couldn’t get underneath the car to drain it. Oil on the windshield is not the biggest problem for me. If the catch can starts blowing oil it gets on the alternator belt, and the battery won’t charge.

Somewhat baffled on the inlet lines, appears to be hard annodized Aluminum (very hard scratch resistant Black finish), a little dipstick to check how full it is (no sight glass) and best feature is the bottom unscrews like an oil filter and you can dump it easily.
I made a little bracket to make it easy to take up and unscrew/drain. I put some silicone tube over most the dipstick threads so its only 1 thread and not unscrewing/screwing for days...
