When replacing my carb a few days ago I found this this near it and it was all broken and beaten up.

It is not a pcv valve. It is a temp sensor that controls vaccuum to an emmissions component. I think it is for the A.I.R reaction setup. the air pump circuit.

now that i look at it closer. it is most definietly NOT a pvc valve.
this sensor screws into the thermostat housing, it sould have two little tubes sticking off of it, but as u can see one is broken off.

I found the part at a local autozone but now I'm wondering what hooks up to it, there was only one thing attached to it obviously since the other part was broken off of it. What else is it supposed to be attached to and does anyone have a picture lol

in not one hundred percent sure. but i think birdman has it right. it has something to do with emmissions.
