Valve Cover 1968 250

Anyone know what the part is called that goes in the SIDE of valve cover where tube goes in? It is some kind of hard plastic grommet. I broke mine pulling the tube out and need another one.

It's not plastic. It WAS rubber, but must have hardened over time and contact with hot motor oil.
LMC's got 'em:
P/N:30-2520......$1.95....Grommet, Breather...1'' I.D., 1-1/4'' O.D.

When new, the Grommet is closed, like a plug. You have to cut a hole for your breather tube.
