I am curious what this part is called? I believe its the PCV valve and im in need of a new one, and when I look around on ebay i dont find any or the part looks completely wrong. any idea on what it is? Am i right?
FYI this isnt a picture of my engine bay.

Fairly sure that's the PCV valve, and there's supposed to be a port on the intake manifold up under the fuel rail if I recall correctly.

Kk thank you, I just wanted to verify this :-). Although Now i need to find out how to get a new one lol. ebay i guess doesnt have the correct pcv that im looking for. which is pretty surprising.

Just hop onto RockAuto and Amazon, then can cross-reference parts numbers if you feel like it.

rock auto? hmm interesting. I never heard of that before. Thank you! I will look into it :-)

$3.70 shipped before 5% discount off RockAuto for a Fram valve, or a little more or little less depending on whicher brand you prefer.

Just Google "RockAuto Discount Code" and RetailMeNot will have the code which you paste into the "how'd you hear about us" section of the checkout.

I just replaced mine On my 7afe, It was 2.99 at oreilly and I bought new hose too and a grommet. You'll need a grommet... Total was under $7

Yep, grommet. $5.55 shipped for Fram PCV valve and Beck/Arnley grommet.

Don't have to waste fuel or deal with people, it's a win win win.

Dude that site is awesome! Thank you so much for showing me that!!!! As always your a pleasure to talk to box! And I do have another question, how do you remove this valve? Any ideas? I watched some YouTube videos for some other types of PCV valves and they just pull it out of there. Im kinda scared to just yank mine out of there if its suppose to come out a different way. Can someone verify this for me?

Rockauto.com FTW.

I think this pretty much sums it up for me. I know its for the 5sfe but Im sure its very similar for the 7afe.

It just pops out while smashing your hand into the fuel rail and intake, pretty straightforward stuff. I think I might've used a flat blade screwdriver to pop it out since I value my hands.

Just use a pair of needle nose pliers and pull it out, the grommet will be in there still. Then you can get a razor blade and cut it up, have a vacuum ready to suck up the parts that fall into the hole. Once you cut out 1/4 of it, you can pull it out with the needle nose pliers.

No need to be cutting things up, put the the flat blade behind and under the lip and work it down while applying upwards force.

Take the valve cover off so you don't drop in any rubber parts that crumble off.

Lol the grommet crumbled when i tried it thats why i just cut out what i could and pulled it out

Fair enough. Mine was still pliable and had been replaced at one point, but I already had a new grommet so it was going in.

Thanks guys! All very useful information. I will asses the groumet before removal, if its pliable then i will not remove the valve cover, if its not pliable anymore then i will remove my valve cover to remove it.

If you do pull the cover remember to grab a new gasket, and since you're already there I'd replace the spark plug tube seals while I was at it.

Ah good point! I ordered the parts I needed but I havent ordered a valve gasket and the spark plug tube gaskets, gonna wait till I start the removal process to see what I need to do. Hopefully its an easy job :-P.
