Some applications (not corvette) the fresh air source is from the intake duct.
I realize this is a corvette forum, but if you seriously think all these parts are manufactured for the 3% of vette owners that actually wrench your kidding yourself.

And what is a PVC? Last i heard it was still poly vinyl chloride, and had nothing to do with engines or mechanics.

I saw it first hand, and so have others. The airfoil DOES have something to do with that, it causes a potential obstruction to the PCV system. No two ways about it.
No, the PCV doesn't hook up to the throttle body, it's sourced from the intake. What hooks up to the throttle body is the fresh air source (CCV), which is to keep the PCV from causing negative pressure in the crankcase, if you happen to have a SBC that doesn't have any blowby at all.
The connection to the throttle body simply provides a filtered free-air source. A breather cap does the same thing.
