Question PCV grommet

Is anyone aware of a reliable source for the pcv grommet found on the early 70's Cutlass, GM part 385283? OPG has them for $15 a piece. I know I could piece together a connection, but would rather have the original look. Has anyone here used GMpartsdirect?

I picked mine up at Advanced Auto Parts for around 4 bucks. They are found on a carousel rack with all the other generic grommets, vacuum tees ect.

Fusicks has them for $8.50 and they look exactly like OEM.

Thanks guys. The advance near me looked at my like I was crazy when I brought it in yesterday. I refused to pay $15 for that and the local GM dealer was out of stock. I'll check another Advance tomorrow...

I generally shop at O'Reilly Auto Parts. They are much better than Advanced Auto or Auto Zone. At least that is my experience. Good luck.
