Problem, What is this and where can I get one?
Replacing valve cover gasket. Started to take off the hose between the engine and air box and the hose just split off just before the the little spout and the remaining piece cracked off. Where can I get a new one? Will I be able to drive with it like that? Maybe tape it up temporarily? Please help! '97 4.0L

It's a CCV elbow. It's part of the emissions system. You can get them in just about any parts store. I bought mine of the local Dodge dealership and I would recommend replacing the rubber grommet as well. Chances are it's hard when it should be pliable.

No, it's not a PCV on your model-year, it's a CCV. Don't ask for a PCV. Most parts stores will tell you they don't have it if you call it a PCV.
Btw, I prefer the dealer stock because I'm pretty certain the quality of the plastic is better. Same with the rubber the grommet is made from.

And if you're just wanting the piece of rubber hose that's broken I would just get that at my local parts store. Many of them will just give you that piece if they have it. Just be sure sure it's snug on the CCV elbow.

For a temporary fix you can get a piece of 1/2 or 5/8" rubber hose and two hose clamps to fasten them together, I did the same thing on the other end at the air cleaner box and it made no difference in operation so much so in fact I still have it there.

I just wanted it fixed asap, that's why I didn't want to order anything amd wait "x" amount of days. In the mean time I just taped it, the only driving I'll be doing is 5 minutes tomorrow morning.
