Should I buy an oil catch can?

Hello my car has a carbureted Chevy 350 from a 74 camaro that burns a bit of oil. I watched scottys video and he recommended changing out the PCs valve which I plan on doing. Additionally while doing some research many people recommended an oil catch can to overall help the engine perform better. What would be your advice? Thanks!

The problem is that people put in oil catch cans and forget to empty them.  Then their main seals start leaking and they can't understand why.  I figure if you maintain ventilation from the valve cover to the intake manifold with a fresh pcv valve at each oil change and maintain a clear breather tube to the air filter, a catch can isn't necessary, especially with a carbed SB Chevy.
