It looks like a PVC valve. You can buy onefrom any car part store.

auditech79is right, but I think you HAVE to get one from ecs, I tried getting one in town and all of the different parts stores had them but they were way too big to fit my vac lines.

check all the hoses to see if they are in tact. Someone posted about a week or so ago about one of the peices just of the PCV under the manifold broke and needed replaced. Also check all the lines for the PCV while your at it, my brothers car was severly clogged from the regulator to the intake. We replaced all the hardlines with hose and installed in a catch can.
