Default Question about PCV valve 2003 Dakota

I have a 2003 Dakota with the 3.9L and 66k miles. I was going to change the PCV valve and according to the Haynes manual, its on the driver side valve cover. After getting under the hood to change it, I notice theres a similar looking one on the passenger valve cover but its not listed on Autozone or Advance Auto website as a PCV valve but as a PCV Elbow instead. Is this another PCV valve or is it just a 90 degree bend? I havent taken it out to look at it because its pretty tight and Im going to see about getting grommets for the PCV Valve and the PVC Elbow before removing them.

Also If anybody happens to know the OEM part numbers for these grommets, Id appreciate it because the ones listed on Autozones website have a really bad rating
Thanks

Yeah, one side, with the hose that goes to the air filter housing, is just a hollow elbow. Valve hose goes to the intake.

If dodge doesn't have those grommets available any more, I think they are available at your local parts store, in the 'help' section. (dorman products.....)
