I believe what Ken is looking for is the round disc-shaped Oil Breather Valve and the adaptor tube that attaches underneath to slide into the round opening in the crankcase.. The Oil Breather Valve has a PCV function inside of it, hence that's why it's called a PCV Valve. Fits 80-Early 83 2.0 All States.
