Sounds like your talking about the oil breather tube? Is it a black tube on the pass side valve cover going into a filter somewhere? Im not sure how TPI engines are but thats what mine is on the pass side of my TBI motor.

You should be able to get a throttle body gasket at any parts stores.

Yeah that will work. It took me awhile to find a breather that fit the pass side valve cover but i found a chrome one at autozone for 4$ that fits perfect.
