Yes much better image THANKS. Does anyone know what is the item in the red box? That is the one he cut. I think it is a vent of some sort and if I am not mistaken it not a serviceable part?

Ya tried that site but I am unable to even find a image of the area of issue. It just shows pump assb and tank, doesn’t show the vent at all in the image.I think they are the same also,only difference might be the fuel pump specs or possibly the 5.7L has a different capacity but as far as the measurements and mounting the 2 cars are the same frame design.

Well I drove the hell out of it today(all around Lake Tahoe). And normally it is a beautiful drive but with the snow and severely high winds today, it was more of a adventure and a challenge just to stay on the road. And in the end the last 2 monitors never did set and it still didn’t set any codes(active or pending). So since Nevada allows 2 non-set monitors to be acceptable I think I’ll just let it fly for now and advise the customer of the issue. And as bad as it sounds to wish for I do wish it would develop into a issue that might give a little better image of where to look for the solution. But for now there are no codes and the car runs great, so I guess it is just wait and see for now because I have no clue where to go at the moment. I have checked everything I can think of and even more. Thanks for your help and will update if anything changes.

I found this in the
Nevada State DMV 1G Inspectors Guidebook1996 through 2000 year model vehicles are allowed 2 unset readiness monitors.
2001 to present model year vehicles are allowed 1 unset readiness monitor.
If the maximum number of unset monitors allowed is two and the number of unset monitors is zero the vehicle test passes this portion.
If maximum number of unset readiness monitors allowed is two. The number of unset readiness monitors stored in the PCM is four the vehicle will be rejected.
The vehicle must be driven, under varying driving conditions, for three to seven days to allow the on board computer to run the readiness monitors to completion.
The vehicle must then be retested.
If the readiness monitors still have not run the vehicle must be repaired.
A drive cycle guide of the model specific drive cycle, will be made available to the customer at the Emission Lab.I found this in the
