Flame trap 850 1996

Just curious, I have read about the flametrap problems with this model car. After talking to my mechanic, he seems to recommend changing only the PCV valve. Not the Flame trap itself as it could be very costly.
Does the flame trap itself need to be replaced or just inspected?

96 850 N/A 185,000 KM

Had it since new and no major problems so far.
