Just got my 26, first mod is a J&L oil catch can. And when I went to install it, I noticed the PCV fitting on the passenger side/valve cover wiggles. Anyone else's do this?

Its just a rubber grommet at the valve cover so it will have a fair amount of movement.

I don't in this truck but did on my 2017 Nissan titan. J&l is top notch

I might have an unpopular opinion, but probably only worth it on a 3.0 or the older 2.3 without port injection. Won't make much difference on a 2.7 or the newer 2.3 since these have port injection that wash the intake valves. Yes, you will get a tiny bit dirtier intake track, won't really matter unless you are chasing fractions of seconds in the quarter mile.
