can't find valve covers!!!

ok...somehow my rockers tapped a hole all down the side of my valve cover...odd
but now, i can't find a set of valve covers!!!
need a set that has 2 (oil filler cap, and pcv?) holes on 1 cover, and 1 (whatever comes off of the tb) on the 2nd.

or will i just have to buy a set, and drill my own holes?

Dude sorry to hear about your valvecovers. I have a set with the two holes in the d/s cover and 1 in the p/s cover. I think they are out of an 87. They definately need to be sandblasted or cleaned up in some other way and painted. If you want them I'll send them your way for like $20 plus shipping.
