Default 2001 1.8t quattro a4 can't find PCV valve

I have searched this forum but still unable to find where this little bugger goes. Attached is a pic that might be of some value. Any help is appreciated. 2001 1.8t quattro a4 can't find PCV valve-audi-engine-pcv-area.jpg

Theres 2. It take it by your description "little Bugger" you are referring to the one with part number 035103245? Find the crankcase breather tube under the inlet manifold, it should go to a 3 way T connection tube. One side to the crankcase breather, one into a metal pipe that runs around the rear of the engine and one to a flexible tube. The PCV is in the end of the flexible vacuum tube and into the T piece. (Nicely hidden from view).

The other PCV is the large round one which is pretty obvious.

Yes thats the larger obvious PCV valve I mentioned.
There is smaller crankcase vent PCV that I was talking about. On my 1.8T (2004) there is a crankcase vent pipe next to the dip stick under the inlet manifold. Black plastic pipe out of the lower part of the engine block, turns 90 degrees to the rear of the engine into a rubber T piece. One branch from the T comes up to the inlet manifold. The PCV is located in the T peice of this hose. Mine looks like the one in the attached image.
