When I go to change the PCV valve I notice there’s two openings, on a fork like tube for two vacuum hoses, yet no nose-able hoses in sight.

It looks like the valve is near the valve cover. Here is the location and instruction on how to replace the PCV in the images below. Check out the images (below). Let us know what happens and please upload pictures or videos of the problem.

The PCV vacuum line comes from the main vacuum source which will be at the throttle body or intake manifold. Here is a diagram to help. Check out the images (below). Please let us know what happens.
