Are you sure there is one? I don't know that there's not, but some cars don't have one, and since nobody is replying...

You have to remove the intake manifold cover to check/replace the PCV valve. It's located on top driver side rear manifold.

I have not heard of one failing on a Pilot. We do have an EGR valuve issue, but with rather obvious and not terribly bad symptoms.

I would not change it for "preventative" reasons.
