After closer examination of the hose line bracket it looked to have been original phosphated so I re-phosphated my original, restored the screw and the rest of the electrical and hardware.
I think the 1969 Chevelles used a plastic fuel tank vent valve

they sell it has fitting 1968 to 1970 but some say it is 69 only?
I know they used to be hard to find so people would replace them with a home made unit.
it used to be hard to find but they repop it now
