3.1L CCV Replacement?

I think I may have finally found my oil leak, but I'm having trouble finding the parts to fix it. I'm no expert, but according to all the diagrams online this is a CCV, but I'm struggling to find any place to get a new part for it. Is there a valve in there similar to a PCV? It didn't pull out easily like a PCV would, so I decided not to yank on it and risk breaking something, since I'm still fairly new to working on cars. Any tips for fixing that leak/ replacing that bit would be much appreciated!!

Re: 3.1L CCV Replacement?

Are you referring to the crank case breather ?
you might see what Dorman offers.

Maybe? Like I said, I'm new to working on cars, I'm not sure of what exactly to call it. It's the tube that goes from the passenger side valve cover to the air intake, just before the plenum. Specifically, the issue is that oil is coming out from under the bit that's attached to the valve cover.

Solid, thanks! Didn't think that it'd be under PCV, but I suppose I should have checked into that before posting Thank you!!
