Valve cover

I bought a polished valve cover a while back and now that the weather is getting better, I'm actually able to install it. Typically, there is an elbow that comes out of the valve cover and uses a hose to connect to another fitting in the turbo piping. My valve cover is missing that elbow.

Stupid question: Anyone know where I can get one of these?

Thanks!

Just take the one off your old valve cover; it unscrews out and you can just use a rotary tool to shiny it up.

are you talking about the valve cover ventilation hose? and assuming you have the old valve cover, saw that bi$h off and solder it onto the new


or just go buy some steel wool and go to town on the old one...
