You should still be able to get the stock covers from Chrysler.

Ebay and swap meets for stock NON chrome valve covers, I think you can get a chrome breather, is
that the slide on style or push in a rubber grommet style?  I will check ''CHRIS??''
Or you can get an original chromed for a price.

i have a set of BB valve covers I just took off my car today ---  go looking in a local junkyard...    thats where i got mine.   I have your chrome breather as well --- they are just push on style...   they dont use a grommet

http://www.tonysparts.com/newproducts.htm repro's the cap.

Each year 440 has a different "correct" valvecover.

Only the drivers side of the 68-69 is the same (easiest to find)

The pass side of 68-70 are all different.

The 70 440 V/C are the hardest & most expensive to find.

Not sure on the 66-67 or the 71 & up covers personally

hmmm   i didnt know there was a difference in valve covers....     i knew there were tall ones and short ones...    learn something new every day

The '68 passenger cover has a mount to attach the heater hoses to where '69 does not because the hoses mount off the fender well with a bracket. The '70 is entirely different. IIRC the 66-68 valve covers are the same but, the breather was different depending on year. This pic is a '68 cover I had on my 440 for a short time until I found a '69 cover.

Quick!! get that Fram filter off there!!! 

Function wise they are all the same.

Like I stated before, in "correctness" there is a difference

The 68-69 drivers side cover is basically a "bare" cover with just the provision for the breather. (no wire clips/tabs)
In 70 they moved the PCV valve over to the drivers side from the pass side.....

Pic one.....drivers side 69

Pic 2.... pass side 69  (note PCV grommet, 2 wire harness tabs & 2 spark plug wire tabs)

The Fram was on there for about 30 minutes of run time to break in the cam...then the Mopar resto filter went on.

Wheeewww....that was close!!

Frams bite the big one....     at the shop we only use them for break ins...      after that other filters go on....        BTW those are the valve covers i have...    driver side is just a breather, passenger side has 2 wiring clips and 2 guides for spark plug wires along with a PCV provision....
