Hey,
The PCV is located on the passenger side valve cover. You will have to remove the intake plenum to get to it. I did this about 3 months ago. Not really that bad especially when you have Yotatech members to help you out like I did. When you know what to do, it's a fairly simple process.
Anyhow, if you follow the hose in the pic (the one with the green arrow on it) under the plenum, it will lead you to the PCV. I replaced my PCV hose while I was at it, so yours may not be as long as the one in the picture.
Sorry about the blury pic. It was dark out and I couldn't see where I was aiming the camera.
Well, hope that helps,

The hose to my PVC valve just crumbled when I tried to take it off.
Plan on replacing the hose, and a rubber washer that holds the PVC valve in the valve cover.
This maintence repair really gave me an understanding of a lot of the vacuum hoses, cold start valve, and the pair reed valve.
I have a Haynes Manual that also helped with the disassembly
