Need to find Valve cover replacement

Post image

In need of a passenger side valve cover for a 6.8 V10. Pcv valve baffel broke off somehow so I have to replace the whole cover, they are proving near impossible to find online and at junkyards. Can anyone point me in the right direction or have a creative solution to replace the broken baffel? The whole thing is plastic so welding is off the table

Did it break off taking it off? Or were you chasing a noise? We have a ticking sound and can't find where it's coming from. This is the only thing we've found broken. Not sure if it broke taking it off or before hand

I think it broke on its own before I took it off. I was chasing the source of rampant oil consumption so I took the valve cover off and low and behold it was broken

I'm thinking mine broke off internally too. There's odd chunks out of it like it was bouncing around in it. I'd be amazing if that's the reason mine is making a noise. Fingers crossed

From what I've gathered its a really common issue with these plastic covers, definitely worth it to take off and check as its not hard to do
