The PCV valve is located in the valve cover of the engine. Here is the location of the valve in the images below. Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.

It's e O C V Valve. For the oil (variable control?) Do you know if my engine has 1 or 2 valves? Can't find the answer. Intake only or intake and exhaust. And where are they located?

Sorry for the mix-up.

No problem, please start a new question, the part you are looking for is the camshaft actuator oil control valve.
