As you stand in front of the van and look at the rocker cover ( bonnet open, air filter housing removed, etc. ) you should see a round feature on the right rear corner of the rocker cover and from there a hose to the inlet manifold.
The round feature is the crankcase ventilation valve, it is a passive valve.

It is basically. They don't have a PCV, (Positive Crankcase Ventilation) as such like the petrol engines do.

Many do fit one, l have one on mine, stops a lot of the crap getting in the manifold etc.
