PCV stands for Pressure Control Valve
or PRV Pressure Relief Valve
under high RPM the pressure builds up and over comes the spring loaded valve , dumping excess water lowering the pressure.
as I said if it sticks open ,it will dump too much water at lower rpm, the block will not fill with water so the motor has no cooling on some cylinders causing an overheat condition

Oh, ok I gotcha, I've really only heard it referred to as "Poppet Valve". I've never had this problem before with any of my previous boats (Skeeter, ProCraft), so I never really gave it much thought. Thank you for clarifying this for me!!
It would think it to be an inspect, clean, or replace if needed.
Kind of like the stats.
if you are paying someone to do it, just replace because their labor would be more to inspect, clean ,test and put back in, than the new part
