Both PVC valves and paper element can be purchased at reliable parts stores.:thumbsup:
I got the paper element referred to above at Napa.
Item: Crankcase Ventilation Filter (Gold)
Product Number: FIL 2718

I am sure I also got the two PCV valves as well, but don't recall the part number. However, there are part numbers on the site here: http://6066gmcguy.com/partnumbers.html

Thanks for the information I have already ordered one of the filters from NAPA and that is where I got my oil filter. I have only had my 64 about 3 months and I am planning on getting an off frame restoration done on it starting in September 2015.

I'm very well aware othat there is one PCV in each cylinder head, just was in a hurry to respond to the post and not double checking for mistakes:lolsmack2::pullinghairout:

Awesome. Be sure to put up some pics for us as you go through the process. :goodluck:

Mine needs some body and paint work for sure, but my wife and daughter have grown attached to it's worn out look. :lol:

I looked last night and the only crankcase ventilation I find on my 305e is the canister one with the replaceable filter at the back of the drivers side head. If there is one in each head otherwise I would appreciate it if someone could post a picture for me to see. Thanks

PCV is between 1st and 2nd set of valves/rocker arms towards the center of the engine.
