You are right, it pulls the condensation and combustion gases that blow by the piston rings which helps meet EPA standards. At the same time, by removing the gases from the crankcase the contaminents are burned instead of ending up in the oil. Not a big deal as long as the oil is changed at the recomended interval.

That "breather valve" Is used to intake air into the valve covers just as covered above. The suction portion should come through the PCV. PCV valve's are one way valve that should only open when a suction is placed on it, which is where the gases are removed from.
