Default Code P0449

Ok, I have a 2010 gmc sierra with a 5.3, and my cel came on this week. I went to advance auto and used their scanner and it came back P0449 evap vent solenoid valve. They don't have a part for it. And I googled it and can't find anything past an 06 that has the issue. The scan tool they have is only updated to 08 models, Could this be an issue with a different code for newer models?

The code is probably valid.
could be a loose gas cap, if not, likely the vent valve solenoid at the tank.

do you want to fix it your self or are you going to a shop.?

I removed and installed the gas cap a few times to check that. No luck.

Ill prob fix it myself since I think the emissions warrenty is expired since I have 47k on it. I guess Ill have to go to the stealership for the part though since my local part store doesnt have it. Any idea how much they cost?
