If it has an O-ring, you can't put a grommet on it because the tube is too big. The newer style has a narrower tube to acomodate the grommet. I can tell you this, Advance, OReillys, & Autozone do not carry the newer style. I found one at a ma & pa auto parts store($14).... you may have to look on line for one, or maybe try a CHevy dealer. & yes it does have to be bolted to the upper tranny bolt. There is a bracket on the tube for this.
