I have a 96 f350 460 and when I bought my truck, it was the same way like yours is, but my short hose off the T had a bolt in it. What I seen, that fitting that's in the valve cover is the pcv valve. I took bolt out of hose and reattached to the fitting in valve cover.

Is it part number F7LZ-6B899-AA? I found many online but they dont show and pics for the part. Thanks again!
also that part number isnt for my truck does that matter?
yes correct part number. I searched part number on ebay and there under $10 with free shipping. Your local auto parts may have them instock.
yea since thats the part number its 4.99 at Oreilly auto but do i also need a hose to go from the bottom of the tee to connect to the port on the engine and do i need clamps too? thanks so much

No you do not need a hose, the tee goes directly onto the PCV valve and nope no clamps required.
Be careful with that black plastic tube, small chance it might be brittle. If so you'll wanna replace it but check it out first, the larger lines in my experience don't tend to get brittle near as easy as the little ones do.
At any rate you will want to treat it with care when removing the old tee.

Yes that port it is the PCV valve, the tee in that line goes directly on it no hose between the two. You could but the tee is made to mate directly to the PCV valve, it will "pop" onto it locking in place no clamp required to keep it in place.
Probably the reason it broke, you can see in the pictures that tee is cracked and brittle. Someone probably when to check or replace the PCV valve and when they pulled the tee off part of it broke off rather than expand like it should when it was still pliable.
Put a new on on it a minute you should be all set, if not or have more questions just ask, always plenty of good people here willing and ready to offer help.
The truck did idle a little rough but not bad. I just put on the tee and it went on great and now the truck is running and sounding great! I can not thank everyone enough for all the time and help. everyone saved me a lot of money for the help and I Thank you again.
Glad you got it fixed! Sorry for leading you a little astray. I am more familiar with small block trucks. The EVAP circuit routing is very different as I have learned.
