PCV Fitting on 1988 Camaro intake Manifold?

Hello

I´m swaping a 1988 camaro TPI on my Jeep. I live in Santiago, CHILE, and bought all from ebay.

My problem is that i have a missing Fitting, the one that goes on the drivers side of the intake manifild and hook the PVC valve hose. Here is a picture of where it goes.

Anybody have a part number or know where can i buy it online?

Here in chile is impossible to find spares for this kind of engine.

Thanks

Any parts house or mail order should net u what u need. Most have selections in stock.

Just needs to have an adapter for 3/8 hose coming off of it

Isn`t that for the 9th injector no ? PCV comes off the valve cover there and goes to the front of the T.B I thought .

Nope... the 9th injector goes below it. Here is a picture with the 9th injector installed.

Thanks

Go to the local plumbing supply or a hardware store you should be able to get a proper size pipe nipple to screw in the hole, I think it is 1/4" npt pipe thread, or maybe 3/8"

Thanks. I needed the size because when the ceramic coating was applied, it adhered to the inners threads on the intake side and I lost the fitting. So before I use a tap to clean out the threads I'd love to know what size they are. If anyone knows... anyone! I'll try my 3/8 NPT tap and see if it looks close.
