i don't think catch cans that vent to atmosphere really work that well, i much prefer one as you describe, where the can is really an extended filter and is still affected by engine vacuum. this is more like the proper term "oil / air separator"
filling the can with steel wool would probably just make cleaning it messy. you might find you can just run it without any filter, or use a $1 paper element fuel filter inline with the vacuum source
you may also want to make a little bracket to hold a piece of steel wool or ramflo filter inside the can, at the opening to the vacuum pipe, that way it filters and doesn't look messy
