Default Intake rubber seal cracked...where to purchase?

On my intake, there is the rubber seal that has the metal clamps around it. This piece is cracking and you can hear the air pulling through it. You guys know where I can buy that piece? Checked local places and they have no idea. This is not at the end where the filter is.

Thanks for checking that out. I forgot. 2000 is the year but it has a custom instake. Problem is I don't know what brand it is. It's the rubber that connects to ttwo together with the clamp.

I dont see it. You may have to replace the entire intake (from the manifold to the air filter) Might be less of an hassel for you. I just picked up my intake pipe hose from the parts store(dealer). I had a crack in pipe hose at one of the bends.

Can you take a expanded picture of the intake(zoom out)? I want to see what your intake looks like. I cant tell what it looks like.

All you need is a coupler that can be purchased at any parts store for just a few bucks. Go to the section where they sell the k&n filters and they should have all different sizes. if not you can find them everywhere on the interwebs.

I'll get a better picture but yea it is the black coupler. I checked all the local auto part stores and couldn't find anything similiar. The rubber is just cracking so it's leaking in air when the car is started.
