is their a rubber washer or some kind of seal that is supposed to be around where the pcv valve goes, i dont have one and it seems like this would let air in through the sides, can i use some black silicone?? or should i leave it alone.

Yes, a rubber grommet should be there by rights. If it's gone, and the pcv valve is loose when it's in the hole, get a new grommet. Don't gum it up with RTV sealant. All you need is some of that getting into the valve train and wreeking all kinds of havoc.

i think the idiots at the shop that the old owner used to go to cut the vac hose too short that goes to it and its all tilted to make it fit and wouldnt fit otherwise...they also aparantly think that many hose clamps are optional, which led to my last probelm with a crazy idle becasue the hose going to the air injection solinoid popped off,
so i still got a box of chocolates under my hood i never know what im going to see next
i actually had bubble gum holding the wire that goes to the idle load solenoid
hahaha
