OMC 3.8L Valve Covers

[Darringer]

I need to replace both valve covers on my 1985 OMC 3.8L Stringer because they are rusted through. Are they OMC exclusive? Or will any others (Chevy)work?
Thanks

1980-1984 Malibu, Monte Carlo, El Camino, Caprice, etc with 229 V6 Chevrolet

many of those cars had Buick 231 V6, so you need to find one with the 229

1979 V6 chevs including the Camaro with the 3.3L (200 cid) V6 are also valve cover donor candidates...same heads as the 3.8
