what do you think of this oil catch can / separator?

it has some plastic parts, but i think i can locate it far enough from the turbo so the heat won't be a problem...

Skip, that is just a water collector for a compressor.

If your going to do a catch can do it the right way.

from what i've read online it needs to have a baffle to be effective

baffle = partition in the middle of the can between the two intake lines, that ends before the bottom of the tank. (i didn't know what it was when i first saw it)
