Running Lean Question

Just finished cleaning the Eaton and the after cooler, changed plugs and put in NGK's, Installed Chicken's new cool aid and put in RPM's Oil Separator. When I installed the oil separator, I ran the line to the PVC ( as per the directions ) and I also ran a hose to the driver side. In running the hose to the driver side, I had to eliminate the line that went to the bottom of the rubber boot below the throttle body. I was told this could make it run too lean. How will I know this and how do I correct this if it is too lean?

get a air/fuel meter, or dyno tune. Then get a custom tune to fix it.
