and wouldnt the 1st setup with the breather cap be more practical then to get a by-pass or non bypass filter setup and potentially causing a pressure issue should the setup be clogged?

Im no expert on this, but I do know if that hose gets smaller or clogged you will have oil leaks fast

oil leaks from what, the setup itself??

oil leaks from oil being pushed past the seals, like the rear main from all the crankcase pressure not being able to escape.

just make sure the hose has a free path, i check mine periodically to make sure its all flowing good. no problems here.
