Well here's the deal. I bought new valve covers unaware that they were for a 350 vortec I believe cause I found they fit but only when opposite sides. To the question. Will I run into any issues with the valve covers swapped sides shown in picture?

If you have the baffle under the PCV hole, you'll be good. If not, you may suck too much oil into the TB.Will I run into any issues with the valve covers swapped sides shown in picture?
Or you can finally have a proper spendy set to modify for getting at the rockers...Ya know ya gotta hide the , oh crap I gotta return these without her finding out.
what is the problem with them? GM lists the same part number for TBI and Vortec valve covers?
There are two different TBI/Vortec valve covers, and I need to get a picture of them side-by-side. The last of the valve covers (I think the switch was during the Vortec production run) have a narrower PCV baffle. I know this because I have a set of cheapskate Pro-Form roller rockers, and the earlier valve covers don't fit with them. The stock valve covers from my '99 Suburban fit perfectly. I don't know if they have the same part number or not.^^^ Yup. I didn't know there was a difference between TBI and Vortec valve covers.
PCV valve?PVC is only issue, long as it works. Might have to get a longer tube....
The bolt holes are offset opposite sides of the stock valve covers making it not possible to attach unless swapped sides.what is the problem with them? GM lists the same part number for TBI and Vortec valve covers?
