The part number is 51049-1108.
Here is the RonAyer reverse lookup. http://www.ronayers.com/WhereUsed/N/9935
It only shows 100 results so there are even more than that more than that.
For my E series (E and H share the same cap) I was able to buy an entire KX80 tank w/ cap for cheaper than just a cap alone from eBay.

Trying to find one of those billet fancy type with the stubby vent tube for the 220 (1999 model) although not totally sure which will fit & which bike shares the same size cap?

That is what I bought. The damn thing has leaked from the vent since day one. I'm going back to the old school vent hose!

Replacing the vent hose is easy enough. The cap is okay otherwise?

Outlaw billet is what I got when my stocker busted. Haven't had any problems with it.

Yep, fine otherwise. I might have just gotten a defective vent but I wasn't willing to take another chance considering the mess itmade.

Mine leaks a little through the vent as well, but it's not like it's splashing out. Comes out a little (especially with a full tank) but goes unnoticed while riding. Just a little extra cleaning around the cap to get it shining again after a good wash. I got no probs with it. And it looks trick. :boogie:
