Find/buy the replacements first. Then you'll see.. I can't find one anywhere for my '93. The rear one was some kind of orifice tube or something. It crumbled too. I might replace it with a normal PCV valve someday, for now it's just a tiny hose (home made) in there.

but how do they come off? I tried getting a screwdriver under them but just managed to break the plastic at the bottom. Does the rubber grommet come off as well?? or just the plastic piece?
