This valve gasket and the pcv valve gasket are shot and have been letting oil spew up from the valve covers. Turns out this is where my oil leak is coming from. I know that on the passenger side valve cover it is the pcv valve that goes into valve cover. What is this one? This is on the drivers side and google keeps telling me its the pcv valve but the pcv valve is clearly the passenger side…

 

The PCV valve is on the drivers side, and the passenger side is an air inlet.

 

thanks

 

Do you know if that air inlet gasket is called something else? Im trying to find one online to purchase and the only thing showing up is the pcv gasket. Ive tried searching “Air inlet gasket for valve cover” “Fresh air tube gasket” “Crankcase Fresh Air Gasket” “Crankcase Relief Gasket”

 

I'm sorry I don't know what it is called.

It looks more like a grommet than a gasket to me.

 

It looks pretty similar to the pcv grommet/gasket so im just buying two of those and ill see if itll fit

 

It looks like a first gen VORTEC valve cover. Both sides use the same grommet.

For further questions, you may want to give us more details about the vehicle, like year and engine type.
