rear axle vents

I believe the 68-70 Type O rear axle have the vents on the passenger tube with a white cap, not the green cap I see the reproduction places list. Anyone know a place which sell the correct vent with a white cap?

Check this eBay auction 281940003232. These are the correct original Danco vent tube, I have bought several of them.

as much as I like Greg Rollin and Supercars, I didn't even think of them. however the pic on their website shows a black vent with white cap, should be white vent with white cap

Fred, thats perfect. Thanks.

I bought several at the GM dealer in the 1900's and they are white tubes with a green cap.
