Default 69 Z PCV valve hose

Does anyone know of a vendor for the correct PCV valve hose for a 69 Z... the ones that are commonly marketed as reproductions are not correct.
The reproduction hose looks like a piece of 3/8" cord re-enforced rubber fuel line... the orginals had a few ribs and what appears to be a little bit larger OD.
Here is a pic of the Camaro Specialties Barn Find car...
I have seen other unrestored cars with the ribbed hose as well...

I just recently noticed the difference... I was studying engine pics for correct finishes brackets etc and saw the hose...
Don't know about 70...

Hello all. I'm resurrecting this post to ask what length is proper for the ribbed PCV molded end hose. I've been communicating with someone there at Dr. Rebuilds just today and he is unaware people are buying his hoses for the Camaro, and he can't honestly say which length he has that is proper since he's a Corvette parts supplier. I'm guessing 23" but I don't know for sure. What are y'all buying? Thanks.

I got this in e-mal today:

On my web store I list the year and horsepower of Corvettes as follows
23"
1966-1967 327 with 300 or 350 HP with A.I.R. smog
1966 427 with 425 or 450 HP
1966-1967 427 with 390 HP
1968 427 L88

17"
1966-1967 327 with 300 or 350 HP without A.I.R. smog
1968-1969 327 or 350 with 300 or 350 HP
1968-1970 427 with 390 HP
1969 427 with L88

When I bought mine from Doc, he didn't ask me the lengths. I think he said they come one length & you had to cut to fit. The 302 was way longer than the 396 325hp.....Joe

The big block with a Q-jet would work with the 17"
The 302 will need to be the long one. It's 24" with the bend

I ordered the 23" hose so I could cut it to proper length. I haven't measured my original hose yet.
