What is the lil round black valve?
In the process of removing my intake I broke the nipple off of that lil round black valve that sits right between the primary runners on the upper intake manifold. The valve has a vacume line attached to somewhere and a hose running to the oil filler neck. It's about the size of a half-dollar and is about an inch thick. What is it? I need to order a new one.

Just to let you know, you don't NEED your PCV. Mine is currently disabled. It was causing blue smoke on startup. I think the valve was !@#$ed and it was sucking WAY too much, and actually pulling oil out of the crankcase, and injecting it into the TB. Haven't had blue smoke on startup since disabling it.
