Erm, late to the party sorry. The V6 doesn't have the round separator pod that the V8 does.

The V6 breather system has some fragile plastic pipes which join the two cam covers to the throttle body. The plastic breaks, often in several places, meaning there's no vacuum in the crank case hence why the V6 leaks oil like the Deepwater Horizon. There's a separator in the gubbins down by the throttle body boot IIRC, and a few more plastic pipes. Other than the main pipe on the top, the rest are a total arse to get to. The manifold has to come off really. The packaging on the V6 round there is pretty awful.
