Trying to locate a source but can only find the ones the push in with a grommet. Would like to kept it original, plus I don't think grommet would fit where it goes. Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

What I have for PCV valve.
I can get the regular one, but here is what it have. Weird. That lock nut on top is the same and the one under cap. Maybe some parts cleaner is in order and just put it back. Thanks for any trouble.

If you look at what I have, that won't work. The size of the hole in the valve cover is bigger than the grommet and the valve doesnt fit what I have, no way to fasten it. No idea what I have and hoped someone on here does.

Your PCV was used through out the sixties and there is no current aftermarket replacement that I can find. This style of PCV is available from several sources on ebay but they are NOS or NORS and therefore expensive, usually ar $35 and up.
Solution? I would convert to use a $1.98 AutoZone POS.

The old original metal pcv valves are cleanable as long as there not broken. If you can shake it and the metal part inside moves back and forth clean it with some carb spray and compressed air.

Reading all the comments and agreeing they are no longer available, except as NOS, and finding the part inside moves ok, I think I will follow the suggestons and put my carb cleaner and compressor to work. It has worked for 50 years so a little longer should be in order. THANKS TO ALL OF THOSE that came to my aid. Great bunch of guys with lots of good information.

Whenever I search eBay, I search by Year, Make and what I'm looking for. In this case, 1965 Chrysler PCV.

There is something not exactly 100% Kosher.
The seller lists it as being Wells p/n PCB48.
If you google wells pcv48, the image of the incorrect one pops up. Not an actual photo.
And the photo on ebay is marked "stock photo"
Let's hope the correct one shows up in the mail.

It's possible the old part carried the same part number and they never changed it when they stopped making the one that is secured by the nut. If it isn't the one pictured in the auction, you can send it back.

Return it. $6 to buy it. $4 to return it. Fine print in ad says refunds will be minus their shipping costs on free shipping items.
You lose money. Lol

Contact seller to be sure item pictured is the item you are getting? At $10, it's probably worth the gamble.

That's the solution...
Ask questions first. Lol.

Not incorrect just doesn't match original.
