The heater valve that you want is carried IN STOCK by Kennedy American (614)879-7243). Their parts catalog shows the Firewall mounted valve as part number HA162 @ $25, and the valve that screws into the rear corner of the intake manifold as part number HA388 for $35. These are parts manufactured by the original AMC vendor and are NEW, not OLD STOCK. The manufacturer is closing their manufacturing facility here in Ohio, so Jeff Kennedy ordered about a pallet load of the valves. They are exactly correct. I recently replaced an original valve that had just gotten too hard to open & close with a new valve. Wow, what a difference!

Part numbers are from the Kennedy American 2004 catalog.

No, I'm not a shill for Jeff Kennedy, but I Have known him since 1980. 
And, since he is only ten miles from me, I'm over there quite a lot getting parts for my cars. Thus I have a fair idea what he carries.
