Pcv valve

The size of the opening is deceptive. The uninstalled valve has a smaller opening, when installed the opening conforms to the outlet on the end of the camshaft. This creates the best seal possible.

I'll pull mine off and look. There should be no oil there.

if you or anyone else recalls about a year or so ago there were a handfull of people I saw posting about this. Mine has been like this from day one.

Having my laptop back again, that's just a rubber seal. So your comments make total sense.

This is correct even on a 2024 model year vehicle. The cost differences are interesting
