'00 Galant ES 2.4L auto 94k miles

I was looking online for a PCV valve, and found that the price ranges quite a bit from $5 (Hastings) to $13 (Standard). I'm just curious: Do they differ much in quality?

The PCV valve currently in my car is L-shaped. The valves that I saw online are either L-shaped or I-shaped. Should I stick with L-shaped valves?

Thanks in advance.

Go to your local auto parts store and get one, should be about 5 bucks.
The one you buy should be straight, but have an adapter L tube with it.
As for if it matters, no not really. All it does is pull oil out of the vent line. no worries
