Crack in PCV hose, can't find replacement? Found a crack in my PCV hose between the valve itsel and intake manifold. I have searched all over online and parts store and can't seem to find a replacement. Does anyone know where I might find one?

You can't buy pieces of the line individually, but I believe you can still buy the entire system from GM. My records show the part numbers to be:
#12560692 ('98)
#12590632 ('99-'02)
I'd verify those numbers with a dealer before ordering though.
The other option is to custom make your own PCV lines. If you do a search, you'll find several threads with tips on this process.

OP
short of buying the whole tube assembly you could just buy a rubber elbow the size you need and a plastic coupler and cut off that part and use the new elbow and coupler to splice into the existing hose. This stuff comes in various sizes usually in the "help" section of auto part stores for PCV valves
Electrical tape as mentioned would fix it for awhile. Might want to wipe hose with acetone or something first to clean it

With some 3/8 hose and a short piece of 3/4 hose and a nylon fitting with a 3/8 barb on one side and 3/4 male thread on the other side, and some sealer to seal the 3/4 hose to the nylon fitting, you can make a simple fitting for the PCV valve. (I think it was 3/4. Also used a plastic hose clamp.)
