GM has a TSB on this as well.

Just so we are clear, I have a LS3 with Maggie. This should not be a problem for me because I already have that nipple plugged off. It was the one that ran to my intake right?

Oh I got it. This is at the end o the hose that is connected to the catch can, correct?

How exactly does it come off? I'm guessing the black peice is a cover that snaps off, the you use pliers to take out the valve?

Hardest part was getting it out, my vice grips were almost too big, I couldn't find my Channel Locks, which would have worked better.

I bought the RX can and breather and will have it installed on my LS3. Will this issue become a problem for me and should I have my installer drill these holes?

According to Tracy all the Camaro's have this same issue. Just maybe located in a different spot for the SS.

So these barbs are connected to the valve covers and are what the hoses that connect to the CC are connected too?

Can someone please post a pic of where this is at on the V8

OK I'm feeling a little dumb here. How do you get it out?
I Don't want to break it. Do you have to release a plastic clip? or just pull.

I first pulled off the hose, it just snaps on, then I took my Vice Grips and got a hold of the silver barbed thing near where it goes into the valve cover and pulled up on it.

OK thanks, I'll try it when the engine is warm, its 49 Deg here.
Did the dealer drill yours out?

I did it myself, make sure no metal shavings stay inside the barb...
