Can any one know where is it?
I've have a Mustang GT '93 - 5.0 and I've been looking and looking without any luck and I need to replace this valve.
Thank you for the help!

The PCV valve is located under the rear side of the manifold close to the firewall. You cannot see it. You will see the hose from the valve coming out of that area. Stick your hand under there and feel around and it will be easy to pull out. there will also be a wire mesh screen about the size of a stack of 5 or 6 nickles. Soak that in some cleaner or deisel fuel. and flush it out. It will be filled with crud.

A funny story about the Mustang PCV valve. Several years ago I was getting my oil changed at one of those quick lube places. They came in and told me my PCV valve needed changed. I didn't figure they would be able to find it, so I said, "Sure, go ahead and replace it." They crawled all over that engine for 10 minutes trying to find it, while I watched and laughed out of the corner of my eye. They came back in a few minutes later and told me that they were mistaken and the valve was OK. I asked them if I could see the old valve because i didn't think it had ever been changed. He said he was sure that it was OK and there would be no need for that. I asked him if he would just point out the valve to me. He was really on the spot. He finally owned up that he didn't know where it was and that they didn't say it was bad, but that they just recommended that it be changed. I reached around the back and pulled it up and showed him for future reference where it was. I also got 3 free oil changes for not calling the home office.
