Blow-by pcv valve: can't locate 900 1991

Hi,
I've read the FAQ on the PCV valve and 940 GLE Wagon. I tried to find the valve recently. I got the upper house off between the underside of the air inlet and off the top of the black cylindrical unit attached to the block but couldn't see any valve in the works. I blowed through the house and felt kind of a breath coming through the oil filler hole...
I read that if the valve or PCV unit is blocked it will encourage seals to open and cause oil leaks, which is just what the car has. The oil appears from an inaccesible place behind and under the inlet manifold. I'd really like it to be simple to unblock a vavle to solve the leak.
Can anybody teach me the makeup of the PCV stuff on this vehicle?
Cheers!
