Again, be very careful if you are re-using it. The plastic piece is probably already crunchy and will break right off easily. Yup, I broke one off in the past hahahahahaaa...

You'll want to replace that PCV valve eventually or get a new gasket for it. Once you remove it, it starts to leak oil.

And if it's never been replaced, hey, why not?
