Its an exhaust clamp.
It wont look very pretty but it will probably get the job done.

I wouldn't be worried about it leaking, but rather the clamp actually cutting into your coupler.

Just go to your local hardware store (Home-Depot...ect) and get a worm clamp for a buck or 2.

Why not double clamp with the old clamps now, until you receive the t bolt?

the Tridon worm-type hose clamps work pretty well for me. make sure that the strap is stainless steel instead of that other material that strips with any moderate amount of force.
also, spray some hairspray on the inside of the coupler before you slip it over the compressor outlet before you tighten the clamp. im boosting 10psi and im still using worm-style clamps.

i would put some type of bead on the pipe,, if you have that go to NAPA and ask for constant torque clamps they work well and they are fairly cheap

The edges of that clamp look a lil sharp and might end up cutting your coupler

also make sure the pipe and coupler is clean. I had a pipe that keep slipping off because it had some oil or grease or something on it

If youre only boosting 7 psi and your pipes are blowing off something is wrong. I guess youre already getting T bolt clamps and this a just a temporary fix, but how about this.... just stay out of boost.
