why can't you buy a rubber elbow anywhere?

[Shag]

ok..... so the pcv valve assembly hose goes from the passenger valve cover to the intake somewhere. where it goes to the intake there is a 90 degree rubber elbow. It has an approximate 5/8" inside diameter. Why can't I find one anywhere? The smarties at the Ford dealer say you have to buy the whole thing.... plastic tube and all.....200 bucks!!! I just need the elbow. I gotta tear in it. Any ideas?

I know that there was a recent thread where guys with holes in their PVC elbows were making very cheap substitutes. I recommend searching for it.
