That's your CCV grommet. Advance Auto has them. Be careful prying it out, it might come apart if it's old and brittle like mine was. And try not to mess up the rubber ring under it.

Yeah x2 on the be careful pulling it out part... I did mine and snapped it even though I was pulling gently and not at an angle. Hell, you'll probably snap it just be ready....

Might as well pull the valve cover and do that CCV mod to make it breath better and replace the VC gasket. That way, you don't have to worry about dropping bits of brittle plastic down into the top end and the VC gasket would be good for years. That's what I had to do because I did drop brittle bits of plastic through the hole no matter how careful I was.

Just do a search on here for it. Yes, you'll still need all the CCV stuff but the modification is to the underside of the valve cover under where the CCV elbows hook up. If the CCV gets clogged easily, you'll get oil on your air filter from the front hose from the VC to the air box. I have had this happen in the past.
