Default Gas Cap Holder

Does anyone have the name of the plastic piece that the gas cap sits on when you fill your tank? There was one on my 00, but not my 01.
Thanks in advance, Vinnie

(Name and part number if you have it)

I believe GM ditched the plastic part in 01. The thing just didn't work right. I know I could never get the cap to stay in the one that came on my 97. The stiff plastic tie that fastens to the gas cap kept throwing the cap out of the holder. On my 03 and probably on your 01 there is a little hook that is used to catch the tie and that keeps the cap in place instead of the plastic holder. It is much better design than the plastic holder.
