It's e O C V Valve. for the oil (variable control?) Do you know if my engine has 1 or 2 valves? Can't find the answer. Intake only or intake and exhaust. And where are they located?

Sorry for the mix-up.

No problem, please start a new question, the part you are looking for is the camshaft actuator oil control valve.
