Default PCV System

Ran a search and couldn't find the answer. I know the PCV valve is on the intake side, but there looks to be another breather valve on the driver side that is larger than the PCV valve. The problem is it is slowly belching oil all over my driver side valve cover. I can't find a valid discription or part number for this thing and I would like to replace it so I can fix this small leak.

Since you'llprobably visit your Ford dealer anyway to get the part,
don't waste your time looking for a part number. Thats their job. I think you have enough of a description for them to look it up.

I found out that 2 breathers is a bad idea. A breather on the driver side valve cover and run the passenger to the intake is the best way to do it.

Well, I'm not taking it to a stealership, I'd reather get the part and do it myself.From the looks of it it might not even be avalve, just a breather. I might RTVaround the base just to stop the leak. I'll call theFord parts place and see what they say it is.
