Default Pot of Gold PCV

Finding my PCV valve has become like trying to find a leprechan. I cannot find the thing. I've looked at the back of the manifold, I've checked the engine map. I still can't find it. This new PCV valve has been sitting on my bench for 6 months. Somebody please help.

If you have the factory intake it should be in the back of the manifold in the center

Is it in the middle along with the injectors? Like behind the manifold? Or is it underneth the lower part o the manifold?

Do I stick my hand under the manifold from the back or the front?

standing on the drivers side reach around the upper intake to the lower intake, right in the center of the lower intake there should be a hole about the size of a quarter. It should be in there. Your injectors are on either side of the lower intake, but this hole should be right in the middle. Hope this helps.
