Default 4x4 breather fitting help!!!

I know this has been done loads of times Now but I can't find a definate answer to what I'm looking for.
I have a pro alloy breather, it's got 4 ports on it 2 at the top and 2 at the bottom
there are a number of ways to do this. But I have a 4x4 engine and on the the bottom of the Original kidney box there is and oil return which goes onto a little right angled fitting onto the sump (inlet side)

So what I need to know can I connect the small outlet on the breather straight onto that?

then the big one vent to Atmos underneath the car

The 2 top ones - 1st one with a fitting into the block (where kidney box was)
2nd one with a threaded fitting into block (exhaust side)

Am I correct? Cos I only want to breath from the block not the cam cover

Any feedback n this ?
Cheers Luke

if you want to breathe from both sides of he block, the two top ports on the tank go to the two block ports,

the large one on the tank goes to atmosphere, and the small one needs to either go to a catch tank or return to the sump below oil level
