www.fcpeuro.com and ipdusa.com are the top 2. They list OEM as Genuine Volvo.

"Many people (myself included) have found that the URO parts put in kits by IPD/FCP Groton are absolute garbage. Please, save yourself the hassle of having to do it again in 2 years and buy OEM Volvo parts that will stand up"

This was posted some time ago,
So not sure if they are selling qem parts or not.

They are selling both genuine (Volvo stamped) and official OEM manufacturers (Lemforder, Sachs) for Volvo, as well as cheap Meyle/Febi parts.
There is also eeuroparts.com

I've been buying from fcpeuro.com. I've used IPD for some stuff as well.

Thanks a lot, I talk with IPD.
They say all parts for the PCV kit are genuine parts except intake manifold gasket. Which is supposed to be same quality.

Inspect on receipt. We have had bad experiences reported for URO coolant hoses, but I don't know about their PCV parts

For turbo P2s IPD has a great kit price on a non OEM including the return cooling hose for $225 and is now on sale for $180!! However being non genuine it's not stated who makes the parts within the kit.

The OEM cost of this kit is in excess of $346
