L82 valve cover grommets part #

[Charles P.]

My valve cover grommets shattered like glass when I tried to remove them. They were more like hard plastic then rubber. Are these available from GM still? If so what is the part number for the left side PCV grommet and right side. If not available from GM where can one get a correct pair? I tried an auto parts store in the HELP section but the throw on these is not deep enough(ie made for stamped steel covers not cast aluminum). Thanks.
PS the current valve cover part numbers are 474207/474208

The left (driver) side cover uses grommet GM #3989349. The right (passenger) side cover uses grommet GM #3989348. These are both available from GM. However, the package quantity for the 3989348 is 10, so unless you find a dealer that stocks it, they'll want you to buy all 10.

You can also get these from a Corvette parts supplier like Dr. Rebuild. They'll sell you just one of each.
