Default Breather tube P/N 058-103-213 - What's the difference btwn that P/N and those that end in -C and -M?

I hit 120k two days ago and it's high time to get that PCV system replaced. I've already ordered the 058-103-213 part on autopartsnationwide.com but they did give me those two other choices (ending in -C and -M) which were twice as expensive. Just making sure I didn't order the wrong part.

Default 213 is the breather elbow tube that attaches to the engine directly. 213-C is a hard pipe run from

the intake line, around the engine, then attaches to the elbow via a T-hose junction.

213-M is the same hard pipe that runs around the engine, but is for ATW engine.

Also, random thought: Since when are OEM HD TREs consider mod worthy? I've had them on my car for three years (second set though) now. I also have PBR ceramic pads that equate to EBC Greenstuff. Again, sig worthy?

I don't think so.

Crop the sig to make it wider, play with the levels to give it more depth, and remove those silly "mods".

ok thanks. based on the tech article, I'm assuming the 213-C isn't necessary for PVC replacement

Default Not unless it's cracked, damaged, or clogged beyond cleaning

Helpful tip: Remove the hard pipe and clean it out with brake cleaner. Worked like a charm when I did mine.
