quick ? on putting center bolt heads on a 98 ls1

hey we all know the 98 ls1 is perimeter bolt pattern and now 99 up is center bolt.now i wanna put lq9 heads on my 98 ss for my boost project but ive been looking for some vavle covers, but there are diffrent models which one should i get.my 98 pass cover has 2 pipes to connect pcv stuff and most center bolt covers i seen only have one pipe in the front to connect to the t-body my 98 has 2 pipes now ive seen a center bolt with 2 pipes but never seen it again. i plan on getting a ls6 valley cover if this matter please help

I'm doing the same thing on my 98, going to go with 01-02 valve covers with the matching valley cover and get rid of the nasty looking hose assembly, still going to run a catch can though.
