So I'd say do both, and then you've eliminated them both as being a problem.
Good time to replace your power steering O-ring too...as it probably needs it, if it hasn't already been replaced....

Ah but mine will pop up regardless on my 95. Even with a new PCV... and yes system is working properly. It simply rattles up.
