You can't use 2 pvc valves and you can't put a breather there cuz your pvc valve in in that same valve cover.
Your breather needs to be in the other side valve cover so the pvc sucks through the whole engine.
Plug it as long as you have a breather in other valve cover

You can even have an oil fill cap thats also a breather as long as its not in the same valve cover as the pvc.
The pvc valve cover needs to be sealed. You can have an oil fill cap as long as its a sealed type.
