Stock valve cover breather hole

[MUD_SPEC]

I put the stock valve covers back on my rebuilt motor for the sleeper look and I took the passengers side hose off that used to go to the air cleaner. I have no emission equipment left on the truck. Is there anyone that makes an aftermarket breather that fits the hole ( .75" or 1"? ) or is it ok to just plug the hole? Thanks

You don't want to plug the hole. It keeps the crankcase from pressurizing and forcing oil out past the seals.

Go to your local auto parts store and buy a breather. They are about 3-7 dollars. Or, Put a pcv valve in it.

So I can just get the same PCV valve as is on the driver's side and hook the hoses together?
