Looking to change out the PCV valve on my 2001 pathfinder 3.5 SE. I have a good idea of how to get there but was hoping for a parts list before i start. Along with the PCV I was going to change out sparkplugs and belts/ idol pully. Any other "while youre in there" jobs to add. along with tips!fthanks

Valve cover gasket(s) if either are leaking.

Also, wondering if it's easier to get to the upstream O2 sensors with the intake off. If so then it might be worth changing them out depending on mileage and if they've ever been replaced before.

Might be worth checking inside the valve cover for gunk build up. However both valve covers are not leaking as of 270,XXXkm. Hate to mess with a "good thing"
