I've noticed a lot of oil in the PCV valve. I had a head gasket replacement a few months back and I didn't change it. Should I have? And where can I find factory replacement parts my valve cover has a screw in piece that keeps the PCV valve in place? Everywhere I've looked they only show a round rubber grommet.

That may be tough to find, did you try the auto part store? You may need to rig something using a heater hose or something similar, can you upload an images of what you are talking about, also, I would try eBay, this engine has a little bit of a different system on it, here is a complete images of the system so you can see each part. Check out the images (below).
