Source for restoration correct oil cap and grommets

Anyone know where to get all the rubber pieces for a stock valve cover setup? Oil cap is a simple rubber cap that says "OIL" on it. There are 3 grommets as well. Maybe these will work?: http://www.zip-corvette.com/ProductDetails/ProductDetails.aspx?pid={d074baad-8300-444e-95f8-1ea2470a8b09}&gid={e9c30a9c-f578-44ce-9dd7-2a064a97a45a}&GroupName=327%2f350+Valve+Covers%2c+Gaskets+%26+Grommets&pname=68-70+LH+%26+RH%2c+71-80+RH+Steel+Valve+Cover+Grommet&Referer=&Alias=&ptct=SGR-SR&CTitle=&

I've bought the "oil" cap at a chain parts store (autozone, oreillys)

Re: Source for restoration correct oil cap and grommets

If it is in otherwise good shape, spray and soak that oil cap with easy off oven cleaner and it will strip the paint off and not harm the plastic/rubber. I got my grommets in the "help!" section at autozone.

In these days of imported crap, the can of easy off might cost more than an oil cap.
