I bought one of these from O'Reilly recently to replace one that was clearly leaking. O'Reilly wasn't clear on the part number for my engine, so I special ordered three:

PCV919
PCV916
PCV917

And I ended up using PCV919 because it seemed like the closest fit to stock (or whatever was in the hole at the time - no telling if it was stock).

I also replaced the PCV valve, with one from Autozone.

The new PCV grommet, while it felt like a good fit, seems to leak just like the old one. I see little beads of oil between the grommet and the PCV valve during operation.

Any tips for this?

Thanks!
