I can't see the pictures here at work, but I don't recall seeing a check valve on other installations. I believe cj may be referring to the PCV valve, which operates a little differently. A check valve blocks flow in one direction. The PCV valve blocks flow in one direction, and meters flow in the opposite direction. The below diagram uses arrows to show the relative flow rates.
