It is not a factory OEM installed item and GM or any other manufacturer could refuse and void your warranty saying adding the hitch causes the failures to your car. BS if you ask me.
Your hypothetical situation is not exactly the same situation. Can a Camaro tow a small, lightweight trailer? Sure. Is it ideal for towing? No. A catch-can, in theory, is meant to help keep oil and gunk out of the intake and also keep the engine's internals running smoothly. A trailer is in no way, shape or form, meant to benefit a vehicle (like the catch-can). Just because it sounds like a good idea, it does not necessarily make it one. Priorities...
