Uhh, pull the PCV valve out of the oil fill cap, unscrew the cap from the valve cover, and dump your oil in.

Dont forget



And dont be surprised if your oil pressure drops a bit after the oil change. 10w30 is a bit light for 351m. Especially if its got some miles on it. Most guys are running a 10w40 or thicker.
