intake question

i have a 96 f350 psd. in between the turbo and the air filter box is a piece of cast aluminum that plumbs what appears to be crankcase vapors from the driver side valve cover directly into the intake. the piece that sticks into the intake tube.....does it open in the direction of the air filter box or in the direction of the turbo. it currently opens in the direction of the air filter. this seems to contradict the flow of air from the filter to the turbo. is it supposed to be like that??? thanks you guys!!

The open end is pointed towards the air cleaner. If you pull your air cleaner tube off and look at it with the engine running you will see the turbocharger suck in the vapors from the crankcase.
