Hey guys, while removing some parts I put too much pressure on something and managed to break it. It prevented me from going head first into the valve cover, however the part doesnt look fixable.
You can see a pic of it here:

What is that thing? The rubber boot was screwed onto the brass-looking piece. The threads were rusted through and broke off inside the rubber boot. Is the metal threaded piece (whatever it is) replaceable? What is it called?
