Why would it need a valve. You are just routing the breather cap to the air cleaner instead of venting to atmosphere. You would only need a valve if it was routed to the intake manifold, which the later smog systems did.
Did you read the REFERRING URL I posted?

Take a 2nd look at the photo(s). Direct manifold vacuum is supplied to the canister housing. It is a PCV SYSTEM.



By drawing fresh outside air through the ACL makes it a CLOSED PCV SYSTEM, whereas no fumes can vent/escape to the atmosphere unlike an OPEN SYSTEM that uses a filtered oil fill cap for outside air filtration.
