Odd PCV and Open Crankcase system 120-130 1964

Hi Folks,

I searched through the forum and all over the interwebs and am still scratching my head. I picked up a new to me 1964 Amazon wagon and I'm trying to dial it in. One thing I'm dealing with is a pcv system that seems to combine different eras.

My valve cover has the cap to the front and it is vented with a hose with a pcv valve to the intake. It also has a road tube. Looking through all the info here, it seems as if a previous owner put a later intake manifold on the car?

I completely removed and cleaned everything... carbs, intake/exhaust manifold, and put all new gaskets in place. I'm having a bear of a time trying to dial in the carbs and am getting sputtering under acceleration. Ignition system is new, timing is good (10* at idle), pertronix installed, new plugs, wires.

should my manifold not have the nipple for the pcv?

Thanks in advance for any help.
