The check valve in the intake that just falls out and get's ingested is part of the PCV system. Should that be covered by the emission warranty ? It is a part of the emission system. What do they consider major components ?

Well took the car in Monday and told the service guy he issue with oil leaking from the TB and all they found was a loose hose on the intake ??
I had to explain about the check valve inside the intake again and have it looked at. They are installing a new intake now. Why don't they get it the first time around ! I hope the PCV is OK as this was done a year ago.
