I see this in your save as well, I assume the BP is broken somehow, is the save from pre 0.16 originally?

No, this is a brand new world for 0.16 specifically.
Re: [0.16.2] Belts between splitter invisible while placing blueprint
So, in another thread (viewtopic.php?f=47&t=55235) Zavian and I found out an interesting thing.
I made a blueprint in 16.5 that did have this bug. Then Zavian made a blueprint that did not have this bug. I imported his not buggy blueprint, and re-blueprinted the just placed blueprint and for some reason the new blueprint again does have the bug.
I decompressed and inspected our blueprint strings and it turns out that there is only one significant difference in our blueprints: In the not buggy version the splitter entity is placed before the last piece of belt, while in the buggy version the splitter is placed last, see diffchecker: https://www.diffchecker.com/utqwg8Xc

Re: [0.16.2] Belts between splitter invisible while placing blueprint
Yes, you are right. The connection of belt->splitter was working properly, but not the other way around, that is why the order mattered.Linnun wrote:I decompressed and inspected our blueprint strings and it turns out that there is only one significant difference in our blueprints: In the not buggy version the splitter entity is placed before the last piece of belt, while in the buggy version the splitter is placed last, see diffchecker: https://www.diffchecker.com/utqwg8Xc
Anyway, this is the same issue as reported here (https://forums.factorio.com54602), so to clear things up, I'm marking it as duplicate.
Fixed for the next release.
