When to replace PCV system? 850 1995

My 854T has 185K mi, was serviced by dealers through 130K or so, and I have all the service records (I think). I don't see evidence of any PCV maintenance. I have had the car since 140K. The system looks original.

When I take the oil cap off there is a very slight vacuum at the cap. My question is, does it make any sense to go in and replace the PCV system as a "preventative" measure? Since it is a bit of a job, thought I would ask before jumping in.

Thank you for any advice. Don
