N55 valve cover leak

so i have 84k miles and its leaking...expected. and a $30 diy job is turning into $700 investment cuz, you know, BMW. i decided to replace the entire valve cover and the Valvetronic Eccentric Shaft Actuator. and of course ill order from FCP but have a question about the VC kit options pulled up on FCP for the N55...one is with "with blow by heater" and the other is "w/o blow by heater". this is only referenced on FCP as i have not seen this on other sites in my research. Im still waiting for a response from FCP but wanted to hear from the community if they have heard and/or have experienced. a quick google search references heating of the PCV valve...and a recall of it.

i am in the north east

which one to choose? not sure if this is an option limited to the VC kit or an option that comes on the car.
