Meant "closed" not "open" in the above post. Carry on.

Did a search on PVC location and this thread popped up. Thanks for the info. I just pulled the PVC valve from my 03 ls430 and found it was a little sticky but still functioned; cleaned it out with brake cleaner and now it's smooth as silk. Put it back in - done. Btw, if that valve sticks open both ways the engine will start seeping oil from the weakest gasket. Maybe the valve covers, maybe the rear main or front crank seal. Ugh. Better to be safe since they're easy to check/clean and cheap to replace. Now I need to go change my oil since it has 3000 miles on it! Some people over here still actually do that. If it ain't broke, fix it till it is! That's our motto.
