Hi everyone
This is my first post and my first S14!
I just purchased the car and I notice where there would typically be a catch can- there isn't! Just an empty fitting

Two of them to be exact. Forigive my ignorance on the matter but I have attached photos to illustrate my concern.
You'll notice two blue threadings on the right and left. Is it dangerous (or just dirty) to run the car as it is? And am I losing potential HP by not having those gases sans the oil re routed back into the system?

Thanks in advanced and again I apologize for possibly asking a stupid question.
