As all of us know who own the 1st Gen LS's time isn't our friend when it comes to parts for our cars... I wanted to post this info to help anyone looking for the rubber grommet/seal on top of the intake for vacuum hose connectors here is the part# XW429H490AA....I hope this helps someone out that is in need of this part...I used a Dorman Help Series grommet but it failed quickly so I went on the hunt for the OEM and found its only around $3.00 dollars ....win/win situation

I think the part number is slightly off. You have XW429H490AA, I think that 2 should be Z. XW4Z-9H490-AA

Or one could order 1W4Z-9Y432-AA, it will come with the elbow 2365, for less then $7 dollars US. If you needed that particular elbow too.
