I'll 3D scan it when I take it out.

I found a diagram:?
but no dimensions unfortunately.
A high temp filament like ABS might work.

Thanks, everyone for the replies! I think the 2000 part (#021 129 101D) is different from the 2001 pcv. See pictures below.?
@Jonathan? would be great to get a 3D print, but I wonder if they would be able to print it with material?that is heat resistant enough??
@gundylake thanks for the response. Are you talking about this using something like this installed vertically?
I'm thinking maybe I'll try to disassemble the existing part and replace the existing diaphragm?with a harvested diaphragm.?

> John, Last fall I discovered I had the same problem on my 2001 Rialta. I was about to leave on a 500 mile trip so I made a quick modification by removing the VW PVC valve from the assembly and fabricated a replacement.
