He says the pcv valve is on passenger side, but I say it is on drivers side. As you can see in my pic and part replacement. he claims the driver side is just a breather element????? Heck, I went back to my truck and pulled the passenger side which initially I thought was pcv valve but looks like a straight thru plastic elbow(it does resemble a pcv valve). I will be heading to Dodge parts counter tommorrow morning to pick up both PCV hoses for passenger and driver side and told the parts guy to get me the supposively pcv valve for passenger side.

Now I wonder, as I am the second owner of this truck, I wonder if some idiot that worked on this truck may have reversed the pcv valve and the breather valve???? My lunch break is about to start so I will head down to the parking garage and pop open the hood and look one more time.

I will call back and talk to the service guy instead to get a more accurate answer on pcv valve location.

So just curious, for you 5.9 owners, where is your PCV valve located?
