Default Need help identifying this tubing



As you can see, it's split and needs to be replaced. It's on an LS1 in a 02 Camaro, right behind the throttle cable. If I'm not mistaking, it goes to the PCV valve? I am also going to replace the valve as well as the tubing going to it, it's just an awkward piece of tube that I'm not even sure what to ask for at my local parts store.

You think maybe I could go through GM and order it? As long as they don't charge me an arm and a leg.

Read through this


http://www.ls1howto.com/index.php?article=18

Don't worry about doing the ls6 pcv mod but scroll towards the bottom and familiarize yourself with the ls1 pcv system..

You can fab up something with 3/8 tubing from autozone

Or you can buy the whole pcv tubing with pcv valve from the dealer at $130 or something like that
