PCV valve location

I have a 92 SE (VE engine) and I need to change the PCV valve. I purchased a Hayes manual off the net but Im tired of waiting for it. Can anyone help me find a picture or a good description of where the valve is? I have searched and looked all over the net with no success. Another helpful picture would be the location of the fuel filter. Thanx

on the back side of the intake manifold collector, toward drivers side. Has a big hose (relative to the rest of the hoses around there)going to the valve cover. just a little cylinder screwed into the top manifold collector.

The fuel filter is located left to the brake drum, if you have the replacement part you should be able to identify it, it sit againt the firewall.

Um, last time I checked, the brake drums were out back with the wheels that they stop! I think you meant the powere brake booster!
