Vent valve mounted on canister. Amazon has the ACDelco 214-2147 for $15.38, Free supersaver shipping when you spend $25.00.
#17 in diagram below.
Video on replacement. Take off canister and run hot water over the valve/hose connection, squeeze with pliers to brake the nipple off the valve, remove piece from hose, then run hot water over the hose to install on new valve. Mount back on canister and mount back on truck. GL

I just got done dealing with the same problem. i started with the gas cap also. ended up moving on to the evap vent valve selonoid. My machanic said there is two of them. he took a gamble and replaced one. luckly it solved the issue. no more CEL. i belive he must have replaced the whole part because the cost was a lot higher than quoted above. i might be totaly off in my explination however this is what i recall having gone through it. i hope it helps and i hope its not any missinformation.

I am concerned that you dig up OLD Threads... why jump on the end of this FIVE YEAR OLD Dinosaur to ask a simple question?????
Please avoid doing this from here forward. Thank you in advance.

Seriously Doc?
I found a thread that specifically related to the EXACT issue I was having and asked a very pointed question that wasn’t already answered in the thread.
What does the age of the thread have to do with ANYTHING??
Last I checked these vehicles aren’t being made anymore and useful information doesn’t have an expiration date.
I would say that I’m sorry that causes you such consternation, but frankly I’m not. If answering my query is so laborious for you, feel free to let someone else do it.

Faulty logic, my dear doctor. Your statement does apply - to ALL threads. There's NO correlation between the age of the thread and its accuracy. A new thread could just as likely be BS as an old one. Newness does not imply correctness.
