It's inside the "fat" part of the black rubber line running to your TB. FYI, it may be a little difficult to remove from the rubber without damaging the rubber. The little strap that attaches to a stud on the coolant crossover pipe, has a circular metal part going around the actual pcv valve inside the rubber on the other end. You may have to work at it a bit to get the old pcv valve out. The bottom (larger end) of the pcv may even be glued to the inside of the rubber on the very bottom end of the valve, so like I said, go slowly and you should be able to get it out. The purpose of the little cable clamp feature is to conduct heat up to the pcv valve to prevent condensation from forming into sludge, etc inside the valve itself. HTH
