Default 1991 master cylinder problem

Can anyone help me out here? I have a 1991 6-speed. My brake master cylinder has two reseviors. Somehow I managed to lose one of the caps. Can anyone tell me if the OEM master cylinder had big push on caps. I bought the car used a little over a year ago, so I am not sure if the master is OEM or not. From what pics I have been able to find on the net I think it's OEM but my local chevy dealler says that the OEM was a screw-on cap. I would hate to think that I have to spend upwards of $300 for a master when is all I need is a cap. In addition, Would anyone know where to get just the cap, if it is OEM? Thanks

I have a 90, which is pretty much the same as a 91, and the caps are push on.
