I am mid swing on an EJ 253 engine swap in my 2006 Subaru Forester.

My new engine has a different PCV valve fitting.

The old engine has a fitting that the PCV valve screws into with a hose barb midway down the fitting. The hose that attaches to it goes up through a sensor that clips onto the air box.

The new engine has only a straight shaft PCV valve fitting with no hose barb.

I cannot figure out how to remove the old fitting as the hose barb sticks out and makes it unable to spin around in a full 360°.

Does anyone have any advice on how I can remove it or if I need to?
