Unhappy '89 accord LX pcv valve replacement

I have a '89 accord lx that is having all the symptoms of a pcv valve failure. Decreased fuel mileage, increased oil consumption and the breather filter has oil all over it. Can anyone help me find where the pcv valve is located? Any help is appreciated greatly!

Default '89 accord LX pcv valve replacement

Looks like there's a U-shaped tube (#8) around the intake manifold. The PCV valve is #18 at one end of that tube.

Is this for the 2BBl or MFI?

That picture covers both engines - does your car have fuel injection? That would be a LXi.

Intake manifold & PCV hose #8 for carburetor is shown towards the left side of the picture.

Intake manifold & PCV hose #7 for FI is shown in the upper right part of the picture.

Both versions, the PCV valve is #18.

I dont think you'll find a replacement hose for that because pretty much everything is discontinued. Gonna have to get creative and make a hose with 90° adapters or something like that
