98 ls1 pcv system pieces.....? Ok so my pcv system was a messed up and not functioning (was that way when I bought it) but thanks to a bud around here we're starting to get it all back together.
We need that little "y" rubber connector piece, what is that and where can I get it?

autozone....auto parts dealer....Your not going to find individual pcv parts. You can only buy the whole ls1 pcv kit, which is expensive. It's easier to buy different hoses, Ts, Ys, and rig it up yourself for 10$.

I found mine at gmpartsdirect for about $86. I wanted the OEM, original looking parts, but it could have been done for a few dollars making the parts up from rubber fuel line.

This is what I did:
PCV Y Repair
The 3/8" divider I purchased was this one:
3/8" Two way
Then just go to your local auto store and get 2 feet of 3/8" inner diameter fuel or emission hose and replace all of it on your car. At autozone here you can buy a package with 2 feet of 3/8" emission hose for a couple bucks. It hangs next to the rack with all the pcv valves.
I'd suggest replacing your pcv valve while you're in there considering how cheap it is. Here is the style GM recommends to use now: PCV1009DL Don't use the one the computer suggests for your car, use that new style. They're entirely different on the inside.
I did this and my pcv system is 100% sealed.

I did end up getting something rigged up and it functions now though! That being said, I'm going to go buy that "y" piece that you have a link to and replace the "t" I used with it. I don't like the extreme angles I ended up with. lol

Mine is working very well so far. I do at one point want to do the ls6 pcv mod, but this is a lot better than the entire chunk of pcv line that was non existent behind the intake. lol
