Default PCV help please!!!

I broke a little piece of vacuum hose when removing my intake for a swap. I don't know what the piece is called. It is the little piece connecting the two lines running from the throttle body and passenger side valve cover into the hose that runs into the PCV valve on the driver's side valve cover. Does anyone know what this is called or where I can get one? Thanks.

lol same exact issue here, you can look it in my thread down there. buying new gm piece will cost around a 100$. so you can either move to a catch can, use breathers OR buy plastic joints or piece of fuel line hoses and connect them. good luck.

If you were lucky enough to get an ls6 block in 01-02 then the cover literally just bolts on no issue. If not then you have to use a dremel and grind a small tab off your ls1 block under the cover its no big deal and can be done with a dremel in about 10 minutes.

Yeah I will eventually when I get around to it. I looked at that picture a couple of times for help since I started my swap even though it's a tad bit different than mine I think.

Yes, there are some differences between the 98 F-body and 99-up F-body PCV pipes.

For 98 ONLY, the GM number is 12560692. $97.91 at Parts Taxi.

For 99 and up, 12590632 is $81.29.

When you need GM parts, Parts Taxi is good and they don't add ridiculous shipping & handling charges.
