Especially if your flush line is the same level from the tank to the valve. You will notice the vent (holes) are on the side of the valve that is open to atmosphere and on the side going to the black tank. While you would not get a siphon into the female side of the valve it could be possible to get flow on the male side. That is the reason the OEM vacuum breaker is mounted up much higher than the tank to prevent a siphon from occurring.
