Actually you might have the correct one. When I changed my PCV on my 02 GT the PCV that was original to my car had a plastic elbow attached to it and the new PCV from Ford didn't. I went back thinking I had the wrong one as well but Ford did a design change so I ended up having to buy another part to connect the new PCV.

yeah thats how mine is, its like a t shape with a screw-in bottom, and it has a plug spot for an electrical harness. if the one he gave me is in fact the right one how do i get it to fit then

When I changed my pcv valve awhile back, I found out that I needed (from the Ford parts counter) not only the pcv valve itself, but also the plastic elbow (and hose) that attaches to the pcv valve. I had already bought the pcv valve (NOT the heated version), and was able to get the elbow separately as a Cobra part, and press the elbow onto the pcv valve with a c-clamp.
It was a suprisingly complicated ordeal for something as simple as replacing a pcv valve.
