Replacement PCV Hose (1988 L98) available?

I have a 1988 L98 and am looking to replace the cracked hose that runs from the rocker cover PCV valve to the throttle body on the LH (passenger) side.

I can find plenty of PCV valves (about $10), but not the hose. which os shaped/formed.

Are replacement PCV hoses still available?

you mean fuel injection rubber hose? I believe it's 3/8" diameter and any parts store should be able to sell you a foot or two of it for under $5.

Just take the original into the store to match up the internal size and it'll be a quick swap.

Yes, it's a TPI engine and that model has the PCV valve towards the rear of the engine so the hose is longer.

I was hoping for a formed hose so it would tick neatly behind the other plumbing, but might be out of luck.

the rh side is gm 10055872 witch is still available at any gm dealer.

the lh pcv is gm part 14088538 has been discontinued so this really is not too bad of a price.

Tried Pontiworld? Couldn't see one listed there but call, u never know.

Or maybe Supercrap has a heater hose etc for something else that's roughly the same shape you can chop into submission. Or get some straight hose and get creative with tie wraps.

Ponti World seem to have the PCV valves, but not the hose from what I can tell on their web site.

PW have good service and stock, but are very expensive.
