It's not an expensive part & it's easy to get to & do so evey 10,000 - 20,000 should be good.For install location & instructions check out www.installuniversity.com lots of good info there for you.I've found it very helpful

The PCV is nothing but a 1 way check valve. It really only needs to be changed when it isn't funtioning properly. Its simple to check it too.

i change mine in the spring each year. for $3 it's worth it to replace it. if i waited to change it every 10-20,000 miles i would be changing it every 3-4 years now which is way too long.
