Possibly in the wrong section, but is an aftermarket oil catch tank worth having?

Some kind person gave me one at the weekend.

Can someone post up a piccy of what one looks like when fitted. i.e pipe run and stuff

When you look at the standard breather / oil separator setup it's absolutely no wonder that oil ends up in the air intake.

I'd definitely go for a catch tank that means you don't have to return any of this dirty air to the intake.... i.e. vent it to atmosphere via one of those little breather filters.
