engine question

I was just tidying up my engine compartment. It is basically 1960's looking with a holley carb and no smog equipemnt.
My question is as follows;
Is it OK to run the PCV and the brake booster hoses to a "T" and then to the PCV port on the base of the carb (?) or do i need to run the brake booster into the manifold directly.
