DPFI PCV Line, where is it?

Want to put a PCV Catch Can in. I have DPFI and am not sure where the PCV line is.

This is a picture from one of SVOBoy's posts. I didn't have time to contact him to make sure it was OK to use this image but I think that it is general enough he won't mind (SVOBoy if you mind let me know please).

Also it flows into the inake manifold correct?

I believe that's it. Hopefully we can have more confirmation.

Yes, that is the PCV line. It goes to the PCV valve that is screwed into the intake manifold runner on the engine. It comes from the black breather box on the back of the engine. The PCV vlave on DPFI engines is metal and not plastic. If you were going to do a catch can setup, I would remove the line, mount the catch can on the firewall or fenderwell, run a hose from the breather box to the catch can, and another hose from the catch can to the PCV valve on the intake manifold.
