Looks like my PCV valve is failing or about to fail had some blue smoke in traffic jam & I suspect their is a vacuum in the top half as I couldn't get the oil filler cap off without a pair of pliers !👀🤔🙄

Petrol so hopefully its more or less a straightforward job I will have the valve seals out while I have the rocker cover off as they are probably on the way out as well

Petrol does not have PCV valve but a PCV membrane on the top of the rocket cover. You can replace it yourself on the 200THP, but I do not think its possible on the 156THP as its completely inside the rocker cover.
