PCV valve check
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.

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

The valve "should" have an arrow indicating the flow direction. It flows towards the inlet manifold.
