yea. im looking for a replacement online but i cant find a single one.
i think the problem is that its not a valve cover because the engine is dohc
is it called a cam cover? or something?

or to make it easy does anyone have the gm parts number for it???
or a link to somewhere that has the intake side for sale?

im screwed eh?

well the valve cover says 2.4 twin cam and the cam covers are the 2 covers under with the cams in it. How did you break it?

Cam carrier cover, you would need the exhaust side

But the bigger question would be... why did it break? Not much in there that could break it, and the things that will won't be fixed if you just replace the cover.

Never mind i found an engine intown to trade them off with.
yea it was really cold the night before and when i opened the garage i saw it broken on the ground so it must have fallen off of the shelf i put it on.
its pretty thick metal though so i guess i just have bad luck...

anyway....

all i got to say ebay ! the parts are hard to find and if u do find it used or new, cost to much or dont work. Ebay is what i do and also go to there store online and see whatelse they got for the cav. Thats how i get it done. Its buying from the whole saler no middle man.
