'05 4.6 pcv valve tabs
was replacing the pcv valve and the new one wouldn't lock down. felt inside the hole for tabs and found none. I've been told that a new valve cover is needed? Seems extreme.

Have you physically looked at it, besides feeling it?

Yes, I took a pic with my phone and saw nothing. Nothing weird happened when I removed the old one other than it been over 200k miles since I last changed it. 🥺

It's the 5.4 3 valve which requites a new valve cover. Maybe all you need is a new grommet to hold the valve in tight.
