The pcv valve is screwed into the rocker cover, the hose is attached to that and goes to the intake. that's the hose that I cut and put the clear fuel filter in.

If you want to flush the system the way you described, and can't find the two rubber hoses that go to the firewall for the heater, and can't work out which one is which, then maybe just attack the radiator flush the normal way by draining it and refilling it.

Before you drain it, make sure the car is up to temp and that the heater is turned onto "hot" so that the coolant in the heater system will also drain.

Also, once you have refilled the cooling system, and let the car idle up to normal running temp (and checked that the thermostat has opened), then get underneath and look up under the exhaust manifold and crack the bleed on the back of the block to release any trapped air in the water galleries.
