The stock L6 valve cover has them. One forward under the oil cap, and one rear under the PCV valve. Don't know why anyone would go to the trouble to cut them out.
Freah air intake for the PCV system is in the air cleaner, thru the 1-1/8'' hose that comes off the air cleaner [collar?] and goes into the side grommet on the forward of the valve cover. In later models, there was a fiber filter to prevent oil vapor ingestion. Could this be what's malfunctioning?
