5.4L Triton Engine, 4X4. If somebody can point me to a diagram or
pictures and instructions on how to remove and replace the PCV valve
on this engine, I'd be very grateful and about $50 richer since I
won't have to pay the delership to do it. Been searching the internet
for this info and so far, no luck.

Thanks.

More info...

The reason that I'm replacing the PCV value is that I somehow let that
get by at the 60K checkup. I'm at 80k now and suddenly, I have oil
smoke at the tailpipe on cold starts (blue-ish in color and smells
like one of them vehicles that burn oil). The smoke goes away right
after the start and then the exhaust is clear all the time while
running. The vehicle runs perfectly. So, hopefully I've got a bad
PCV and this will go away as soon as I replace it.

Oil smoke on start up is a sign of valve seals/guides going bad.
