You may want to get a valve cover gasket and pull the cover (cylinder 1 at TDC) and check the oil vapor flame trap just inside of that fitting. If it clogs (at least on those *other* Swedish motors that last forever that use a plastic disc) the crankcase oil pressures will rise, oil goes past all your engine seals, and other bad things happen. I have yet to have a problem with the 900 solution, but it's possible. They should both draw vacuum there, assuming no leaks elsewhere.
That smaller hose is a maintenance item on my '92 16V. After around a year whatever hose I use starts to sweat oil and gets very mushy as the rubber breaks down from exposure to oil fumes.
"Well I'd better replace it then." (Parrot vs. Vacuum Hose)
