It's in the tech order with pictures. I posted it here recently. CED has it on their website

The hose I/D is 3/8 (IIRC) but there's no way you are going to find usable valves anywhere else. Just try ordering from all the online places (google the part number and you'll get a number of links to buy from). https://www.google.com/search?hl=&q=gm+part+20876185

Coupled with a "Discontinued" notice on another GM parts site, it looks like the Check Valves (part# 20876185) are perhaps now a collector's item now.

There was a period a while ago where they were 'unobtanium' for a while, but then came back in stock. Hopefully that will happen again (?)

Once again TS is correct. They are sold individually. My order came two bags in a single bag.

So . . . what you are saying is that your significant other can set up the microwave to heat your TS for 2 minutes, then "get in the mood" and complete . . things, and the 2 minute timer has not gone off yet?

Hmmmm
