08 XB - VVT-i oil screen

Watching Rainman Ray on "the tube" - working on a Toyota V6, and he replaced a VVT-i oil-screen. Wondered if the 08 XB would have one too? I'd replaced the intake cam and bearing inserts, along with the bearing cap at the driven-end of the cam. (Young son didn't change oil while he had it - long story - in previous post.) After reassembly, I put about 300 miles on it, and changed the oil again. Good so far. Just concerned I should have changed that screen if it has one...

Screens usually last the lifetime of the car, and I believe they can be cleaned if necessary. I'd have to do more digging.
