No. The PCV valve is under the intake manifold. That hose just allows for ventilation of the valvetrain area. That hose isn't as important as the other one that connects to the intake tube, and you can just plug it with a breather filter. Replacement hoses are very cheap, and considering the age. I'd recommend getting a Nissan hose, and if you don't, make sure you transfer the little wire filter from inside the old hose to the new one.

So i messed up the name. big deal. i said what it does though, and if he would be doing something to it, he'll be doing it to the cracked hose, not to the PCV valve location of which he'll be finding in the book.
