i don't have a picture of it at the moment cuz i'm at work, so it might be difficult to follow as i am going on memory right now. this is for the A/C 2008 VQ35DE.

go to the passenger side wheel and look at the back of the engine. to the left of the black plastic intake headers and a little bit down you should see a small black hose that bulges into a larger one as it connects into the engine. there is a small nut just before the hose gets bigger. unscrewing the nut will allow you to remove the pcv valve and replace it. if i remember correctly it's a little far and hard to get a tool in there.
