Was noticing some random oil leakage, saw a YouTube video and said that this would be the culprit. After replacing it, I drove to the store and when I parked the car I noticed the engine started to smoke a little and there was a lot more oil leakage. Any advice would be helpful.

Turn it the other was around.
i installed it the same way the original one was, i imagined that would be the right way.Quote:

one side blows thru and the other side does not allow any air to pass. I bought it off eEuroparts.

alright, will do. Greatly appreciate it.
The valve "should" have an arrow indicating the flow direction. It flows towards the inlet manifold.
