CCV Elbow

Does anyone have a part number for this stupid thing? I went to the HELP! section at Advance. Autozone and Advance both list a "PCV Elbow" and I bought one thinking that's what I needed. The problem is the grommet is too small for the hole in the valve cover.
I took my breathers off the car. They aren't actually breathers, they have sealed bottoms. They connect to the valve covers via straight PCV valves. I was going to just leave them in, but they don't sit on the PCV valves very tightly like they should and I think that's where I'm getting the vacuum leaks.
Does anybody have a part number or has anyone rigged up anything to replace it?

Are the valve covers stock? GM 10240678 should work.

Yes, they are. They're the chromed stock ones you find at Pep Boys.
Thanks Vader, I'll order that one.

So they'e NOT really stock covers, but a chromed version of the stock design. The holes may or may not be the same size. I'm not sure that part will fit.
