Oil filler neck/cap
My oil filler neck is kind of loose and in bad shape so I was going to replace it or just put a breather on it but......I am having a hell of a time getting it off of the valve cover. Is it locked in from the inside of the valve cover or is it just pressed in really tight with that rubber o-ring? Im sure I can get it out with some force but I dont want to end up breaking something that I shouldnt.
I am talking about the black plastic piece that is in the valve cover that comes out at a 45 degree angle and the oil cap screws onto.
Thanks
Dave

It's a plastic "nub" molded into the neck, that keeps it from spinning past the retainer "nub" build into the cover.
I got mine off without removing the cover, it's called brute force
