They covered the PCV line with a foam sleeve. Same part #.

Heat protection? Good question.

I thought of that, but my guess is the inside of the tube would be hotter than outside. [dunno]

Maybe a Redeye thing? My 19 RE has it. Obviously insulation for some reason. Never had it on my 16 and 17 Hellcats

It keep the contents warm so the tube doesn’t get fouled with foamy white moisture crap and break loose in a wad and the blower eat a slug of it. I’m surprised they haven’t devised a factory catch can of some sort. That crud really mucks up the intercoolers after a while, especially in extreme cold weather.

That makes sense.

Yeah, I ordered one using the part # off my '16. I received the foam sleeved tube. Otherwise identical.
So that tells me it’s like the newer designed dip sticks. Redesigned and now that’s all they will sell you.

C'mon...everyone knows that catch cans don't do anything ;)

I would believe it...engine has to match those beautiful wheels. Completely random question, did you ever find out the fate of your other Hellcat?

I've seen videos of a few of them bought from there and rebuilt.......I guess if you have the equipment and the know how it might be a good deal.......
