The one thing to consider in this is that if you didn't make any other changes/adjustments, the car may now be running lean as the PVC system will add some air (from blowby) into the intake tract after the carburetors. You may need to richen the mixture a bit to compensate.

But, gut instinct, I doubt this makes any significant contribution to cooling. Sounds more like a DPO bodge to get rid of the PCV valve, no more. For any effective air cooling there would need to be a continuous stream of cool air entering the valve cover, which would then require a separate outlet for the warmed air to come out again. With this vent pipe, the only flow along it will be a (hopefully slow) passage of blowby gases coming out of the valve cover.
