I have an 02 Z06 - believe similarly configured for the PCV.

The shorter length molded rubber hose from my PCV valve to the intake nipple was cracking. I simply replaced with fuel line ( 3/8 inch I think - just take the Pcv valve to the auto parts store).

Perfect fit - cost less than a dollar with plenty hose left over.

Good Luck.

WOW I thought the dealer had the wrong part when I called. So can it be replaced with regular hose?

92 Buick LeSabre had a 3 inch rubber hose for $38. 1/8" at one end and 3/8" at other end.

Made one with a plastic reducer for 50 cents.

Thank you. No freakin' way I'm paying $70 for that component...not very visible and easy to fab with other available parts. I really hate the General when they apply assinine pricing on certain parts like this.
