Wow, that's really weird. I also found a cracked PCV valve hose when I recently did the intake rebuild.

AFTER tearing the intake system apart I found a crack in one of the PCV hoses going towards the firewall. Very suspicious.



Yep, the one going to the firewall. The hose I pulled off is about 4-5 inches long heater hose. I just did the repair yesterday, so I have yet to see if this solves the CEL problem. I really hope it does. Did you replace your cracked hose?
