I was replacing my PCV valve this afternoon, and had a bit of difficulty getting it out...

Now two things:
1) The new one doesn't fit - the hole is much bigger than the valve. I'd assume this is the mysterious grommet?
2) There's a bit of the old whatever stuck in there. I tried to fish it out to no avail. I'm not too concerned, everything I've seen shows only two very small holes that go from there the PCV valve goes to the rest of the valve cover, unless someone here knows the 5SFE in the Celica is different...

Here's a picture of the old PCV Valve:

If anything from the grommet broke apart and fell, if its small it shouldn't be a problem. Even if its big it gets stuck in the extra layer of metal where the crankcase breather is. Of course I recommend getting it out. By removing cover or like mentioned above wtvr works. On your new one put the grommet on first then the PVC you'll have a hard time putting it in together at the same time
