Previous Owner 'Capped' Vacuum Lines - Flame Trap Connection to Intake? 700 1989

Hi All, Short question on the vacuum lines. Hard to find diagrams for this stuff.

1989 Turbo 745

This newer car to me has a capped off (screw) 'Flame Trap/Breather Nipple' line AND a capped off intake hose (just about where the Idle Air Vacuum Hose and the Dash Vacuum Hose are)

The large hose from the breather goes to the Turbo which appears correct, but I'm assuming the small one goes to the intake?

Would this incorrect set-up cause high oil consumption? Excessive crankcase pressure?

Thanks,

Greg
