Pcv valve location on 2001 explorer. Help!!

[ROMAXXX777]

does anyone know where the PCV valve is located on a 2001 Ford Explorer v6 4.0?

some were in the valve cover, but most are in the extreme rear of the intake manifold, slightly left of center (standing facing the engine). they're almost impossible to see and a bit of a PITA to change, especially when the hoses are old and brittle.

PCV Valve

So I noticed a lot of oil moisture around the valve covers of my 2003 ford explorer 4.0l. It seemed like it was coming from the rear of the engine so I checked the PCV valve. Sure enough the thing popped right out without twisting it. I removed the hose that runs up to the intake manifold and...
