PCV location?? 850 1994

Can anyone tell me where exactly is the PCV (valve) on a 855 Turbo?
Couldn't find it on Bay 13's site.
I understand the hose leading to it needs to be cleaned out occasionally.

I'm at 110K with an RMS leak, thinking this PCV area may be clogged.(Though smog tests have been good).

Don,
It's in the hose between the air filter box and the turbo, down near the turbo. There is a vacuum line going to it with one of those elbows which may be rotted out. Remove the vacuum line and try to run a small drill into the hole. You will need to hand twist it to clean it out. It's not easy to get to.
Good luck.
