It does, and it's in the passenger's side valve cover. I think the official maintenance schedule is something like every 100K miles, but they're cheap, so I'd go every 60Kish personally.
I highly recommend Motorcraft for a replacement - ultimately, a PCV valve is a calibrated vacuum leak. Use of a valve that isn't quite right within the factory parameters could cause some driveability problems.
