Yes, the BSH Stage 2 PCV fix is a catch can.

My question is; does it actually help reduce the carbon deposit build-up?

It does reduce the deposits that form on the intake valves due to oil vapour recurcilation if that's what you are refering to...

Unfortunately it's not cheap and only one manufacturer produces the kit. Additionally you'll have to order it from the US and pay UK custom charges.

....

I assume that installing the BSH will result in the stock engine cover no longer fitting.
