I'm sure there would be youtube videos about this.

-Remove the 2 hoses connected to it, they have press connectors
-unscrew the 4 torx screws, DO NOT drop any of the screws
-remove and replace pcv
-rescrew 4 torx screws, DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN THEM, YOU WILL STRIP THE HOLES IN THE CAM COVER
-clip in 2 hoses again

done
