Torque value for PCV valve?
I'm going to be changing it out this weekend and want to be careful I don't break anything since it's only plastic.

Just do it hand tight. It does not need to be torqued much. If you want specific number, look it up in the FSM.

FSM should have it like tosheto said. It may also be printed on the valve cover above the PCV valve. My new 6th gen valve covers had the torque printed on them.

PCV valves are not threaded, they are just push right into the rubber grommet

They are threaded on the 3.5.
