Is the PCV hooked up to a hose going back to the inlet or to a catch can?

Thats what it will be either get a catch can or vent to atmosphere and block off where it went into the intake.

if i fit a catch can, i am assuming the can has to be fitted b4 the PCV valve? on my 2.8 the PCV valve ismounted directly to the tappit cover at the front so my question is how do you fit it between them?

Nuh after it run one line in form there (it will catch the oil) then from the other side of the catch can back to your intake.
