PCV also comes out of the block on the Z6.
all you need to do is to connect a vaccum hose from the Y8 manifold to the PCV. there`s will be No mounting bracket on the Y8 IM so leave it hanging.

it`s not IN the intake manifold, it just sits in there, you can disconnect the top hose and rip it out of the groomet.
