John,
Just had the timing cover seal fixed on my '07 9-5 with 70K. Big job, according to the dealer and the length of time they had the car. Based on what you're saying below, it sounds like fixing the leak isn't a permanent solution unless you replace the PCV valve. Which PCV valve is it that you see typically fail? Last time I checked...there's the one on the belt end of the engine, the cracking one on the backend of the engine (just replaced at 60K), and one coming out of the valve cover..maybe more?
