This is from E32 730 and 740 V8, but same applies to 530 and 540 V8.
Just in case you cannot open the link, you might first have to register at the U.K. board.

Would it not be easier to just take the whole intake manifold off and remove the PCV Valve body then? That way you can put new throttle body and intake manifold gaskets too! BTW If I see some oiliy substance appearing to be coming from that Pipe end on the PCV is this normal or a sign of failure?
