I just purchased a new PCV valve for my Deville DTS. I lifted the engine cover and can't find the location of the old PCV valve. Where is it located?

I believe it is an orifice that is part of the rear cam cover. If you purchased one aftermarket, their catalog may be incorrect. The large vacuum hose that comes out the front of the intake(behind the p.s. pump), and winds over to the rear cam cover, is connected to what I am describing.
