I doubt that your PCV work caused this. Sounds like bad battery, bad antenna ring, bad spot on starter, or bad connection to starter.
If you turn the key, and it does not crank (crank is when the starter goes rrrrr, rrrrr, rrrr), then you either don't have enough voltage to the starter, or the voltage isn't getting to the starter. Start by getting a volt meter on the volt meter to check voltage. Next, put a test light in that small lead to the starter. If voltage is getting to that lead, it's the starter itself.
If no voltage is getting to the lead, you've got a problem with the anti theft circuitry, like the antenna ring...and you're likely going to have to get it towed to the dealer.
I believe in cause and effect- but correlation is not causality. There is a cause for your problem. If you messed it up by your PCV work, then it would likely have manifested itself right away...
