It's a nuts-and-bolts job, but time consuming. You can probably pull it out, replace the gasket, and have it running again in an afternoon.

No Its not the pcv (I wish it was somthing that simple)But its looking like its going to be a pain in the arse. Any suggestions or a simpler way I can do it? Or special tools for the job?

the only problem I had when changing the tb, was the damn little star (torxx) bolts that hold a sensor in I believe, anyways those little suckers are in there tight! I broke of one bit and twisted another trying to get them off. finally had to drill them out. hehe.
