• a PCV valve main body comprising:
• a first connection portion comprising:
• a first end to be provided in a PCV pipe provided to lead blow-by gas to an intake system;
• and
• a second end;
• a second connection portion provided at the second end of the first connection portion to be connected to an internal combustion engine main body;
• and
• a fastened portion protruding from an outer surface of the second connection portion in a first direction to be fixed to the internal combustion engine main body by a fastening member, the first direction intersecting with the second connection portion;
• and
• a cover member comprising:
• an attachment portion including an insertion hole in which the first connection portion is provided and which is disposed closer to the second connection portion than the PCV pipe;
• and
• a covering portion to cover the fastening member, the cover member being configured such that, when the covering portion is moved along the first connection portion to a position to remove the fastening member, the attachment portion pushes the PCV pipe out of the first connection portion,
• wherein the fastened portion includes a locking portion protruding toward the cover member in a state where the covering portion covers the fastening member,
• wherein the covering portion includes a receiving portion to receive the locking portion,
• wherein, in a covering position where the covering portion covers the fastening member, the locking portion is received in the receiving portion, and the attachment portion is located at the second end of the first connection portion, and
• wherein, in a non-covering position where the covering portion does not cover the fastening member, the attachment portion is in contact with the locking portion to be locked by the locking portion and is located at the first end of the first connection portion.
