This C0AZ-9350-C described as OE for 427 Cobra just listed on ebay......https://www.ebay.com/itm/166552504273
They are open emission caps "that is just the way it is "as quoted from Special Ed. It isn't Ford writing the applications it is someone who works for NPD . Unfortunately you have to look passed their good intentions of being accurate and take there descriptions with a grain of salt.Those two Scott Drake pieces are for open crankcase or closed pcv?
Villages can go many directions. It's important to avoid the "Village of the Damned".
The larger, twist in, 6766-12A is for the drivers side valve cover, non-emissions, or “cookie cutter” cap on closed system.
The small, push on, 6766-5, goes on the intake oil filler tube and was used for both closed and open emissions. Don’t ask me why a closed emissions system has a vented cap on the oil filler tube, when the oil filler tube is connected to the air cleaner base for closed crankcase air flow. GT350 closed emissions use a non-vented cap that hooks to the air cleaner base.
Whoever devised the closed emissions system on the '67 GT500 shows a complete misunderstanding of how it is supposed to work. As a matter of fact it cannot work as built originally. It creates a big vacuum leak to the intake manifold.
I was just asking because the Scott Drake listing does not specify open or closed, it just states original applications which to me, as you pointed out, are confusing.

We had 2 blue 60' harvestores silos assembled on our farm in 1969 made by a o smith and if i remember correctly they were about $20.000 apiece and we had to pay $ to have them taken down to save wasted tax $ on the farm since we havent had any cattle in a long time. Dad could have bought 8 new shelbys in 1969 for us 10 kids on the farm instead imagine that!!
[/color]Thanks Bob, for clarification on the oil fill tube usage. The two pictures I posted in reply #29 are of car #590 (green) and #620 (blue) for reference. Not sure if that constitutes them as being some of the earliest, but they are both pretty early.Of course pictures of restored cars although well done can not be taken as stand alone documentation . Especially when showing out of the ordinary usage.

What is the part number for the "cookie cutter cap"? I can't find that? Was one a service part?
While this subject is open, I have a few questions.
1) Is that oil filler cap what is expected on all '67 GT500's or do they vary?
2) The Cobra Lemans driver's side valve cover is machined for clearance to the master brake cylinder for clearance. Doesn't the CS Shelby cover need that also?
3) Does the heater hose routing vary according to emissions or non-emission GT500 applications? Where would you expect to see it on a non-emissions car?
Which cap are you asking about? The scalloped, “cookie cutter” cap on the drivers side valve cover was only used on the closed crankcase emissions/thermactor GT 500’s(and ‘67 427 Fairlanes/Comets). They could be Autolite stamped or no script un-stamped.
The chrome, Autolite stamped cap on the intake fill tube is typically the style expected for a later car. The earlier cars used the same style/shape cap that were stamped with the FoMoCo in an oval from my understanding. Others will know approximately when the phasing in occurred for the Autolite caps. I was also told that not all of them were chrome, and black painted variations of each type script cap were used sparingly throughout production. Again, maybe someone has a more definitive time frame of usage.
The cookie cutter is the one that caught my attention and curiosity.
My 67 500, 3074, is a non-emissions 4 speed so if you are correct, that isn't what should have been on the car as built anyway.
