The PCV is directly below the rear intake runner. You can barely see it, just put on some gloves and feel around.

The cylinder thing is the canister purge solenoid I think. It vents the gas tank vapor into your intake.

behind the intake, there is a large wrapped bundle of wires that goes directly above the pcv valve, i think they are mostly for the injectors. find the 11/32" vacuum hose coming out of the back of the intake and follow that.

The guys are right on.

You can push the harness over the PCV valve toward the firewall a little to get the valve out. Make sure the valve seats and stays seated upon reinstallation (that harness can kinda want to sideload the valve).

Good luck.
