PCV valve change question

Hello everyone. I have been doing some research because i'm wanting to change the PCV valve on my 1993 351w. This image has a great picture of what it looks like. My question is do I simply loosen the hose clamp, pull it off there from hose 6A666, then pull it off the other hose 381188 and replace or does all that have to come off?

I had to pull the upper intake to change the PCV on my old 1992 F350 w/5.8l engine.

"pull it off there from hose 6A666".

That's how I've always replaced mine. If you get a universal PCV, make sure the plug stays in the top port.

I'm thinking I can go in there left handed and do it in 30 min or less. I hope. I can do little stuff and this doesn't look too bad. I can see mine. I think.

Thanks. I never understood those ones that look like an F instead of L
