I would suggest testing your current valve as Alex suggested. The easiest way to check is to suck on the nipple at the top (I know, I know). If you can pull air through then the diaphragm is torn. The valve should just pop open and let no air through.

When you go shopping for a new BOV and want to vent to atmosphere, then make sure it's strong enough to stay closed under idle vacuum or get an adjustable one like a HKS SSQV. You will also need to plug the hole in the rubber J-pipe that you unplugged the valve from. A big bolt will work, but make sure it's secured and not going to get sucked into the turbo.
