i guess the big port is for the crank case breather hose (catch can inlet) and the two small ones are the outlet ports where one goes to the rubber tube between the air box and the intake and the other one goes to the intake port.

you see; the OEM crank breather hose goes to the rubber tube and to the intake as well using a small diameter hose comming out of the middle of the main breather hose.

the out let port to the rubber intake tube is too small for this theory to work but it is the best i can figure out.

I just looked at this link. If you scroll down past the Hangul you will see there's a fairly loose English translation. It reads as follows:

This is Intimidator Oil Catch Tank for Daewoo motors only.

There are only 2 lines of Blow-by gas on the current product for other car makers.

But 3 lines are needed for Daewoo, it should have 2 of Blow-by gas and 1 of Return.

In the above picture, The big hole is for the Blow-by gas of main line, and small hole is for the

compensation of idle. and the other small one is return line into the aspirator.

Oil can be vented from the under plug. a little small size of 80mm O.D and 120 mm height.

What it seems to be saying is that the large hole is for the breather from the cam-cover. One of the smaller holes is for the intake line (before the throttle-body) and the other is for the vacuum line (in the intake manifold).

Here's my diagram of the setup:

Good luck.

Sorry Muhamad, didn't realise you had answered. But yeah...that's what you said. It took a LOOOONG time to do up the diagram and I must not have read all the comments.
