Good find!  Still debating on a catch can or not, but I like that route.  Those are cheap enough that they are probably worth it for the time they would save for the install.  Plus the ability to easily/quickly return to stock.

preparing for rx catch can install and didn't want to hack up my oem hoses either so i figured i'd try my luck at the salvage yard. had some success!
from my observations these can be found on 05+ taurus and possibly other fords. scored 2 elbows and 2 straight fittings plus a check valve. they clipped on to all the ports on my 2011 and have 1/2"barb just like stock. only difference is the color of the retaining clip.

The color doesn't match?  Toss it all, can't have it under the hood of a collector automobile!

What did you use to remove them? any special tools? I may have to pick some up.

as in remove the fitting from the car or the hose from the quick connect fitting?
just pull back the tab on the fitting and it pulls right off the pcv valve. then i used a hot razor blade to cut through the nylon hose to get it off the barbed end. just have to be careful not to cut o-ring

A heat gun on the hose for a brief period of time will soften it enough to pull it free from the barb without the risk of cutting the o-ring.

Blade is faster, though.
