Plastic Wire Retainer Part Number

[Timothy K.]

Need some help in determing the part number for the small black plastic retainers that hold the idle solenoid wire on the left side valve cover. The retainer is pushed into the metal brackets that are pushed onto the fins of the valve cover. Mine are in place but getting 'played out' and was looking to replace them. I've seen some that are close but looking for the correct ones. I've looked in the Assembly Manual, the Parts Catalog as well as the GM Standard Parts Catalog and can't come up with anything. Does anyone have the GM P/N or a source for these?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Tim,

I see by your profile you have a 73 L-82. Wouldn't that use two small metal clips, one under each of the driver's side inner valve cover hold down bolts, like other early 70's small blocks? I'm just guessing at that, because I'm not familiar with a bracket pushed onto the valve cover fins? (I have the same covers on my 72)

I see what you mean; that's quite a bit different.
