Default oil cap question

does anyone know how to remove the plastic peace on the valve cover that holds the oil cap?
i have a breather (metco) that i want to put on but the breather is too tall and it hits my strut brace
thanks

take off your valve cover, and look at the oil fill neck from the bottomside of the cover
theres a little plastic notch that you have to pull out while turning the neck
I used a tool with a hook on the end, kinda like a dentist scraper thing
If you mechanically inclined at all, you will figure it out when you pull off the valvecovers
