Where can I buy one...

On my wifes 77 3/4 ton long bed i need this caue the previous owner used a dryer vent type one on hers cause i am guessing the stock one got messed up. And what is the term for this part? I know its for the air coming into the engine. In the pic I found online this almost looks like a dryer vent hose as well but at least you can see the part I am talking about. The stock ones are more flatter and wider. I seen a pic other day on this forum and looks like it was a new one the guy had on his motor. What is the term for this part and where can I buy a new one? Its on left side of pic and attatches to the air cleaner. Thanks guys.

Oh cool Broey thanks! Man duhh.. I should have went there and looked thru their pages. Thanks again. I am trying to find the one that is more flatter in shape and not round, they are kinda wide and are of plastic, more solid than the accordion type. I saw a pic on this forum somewhere and i should of asked him whwre he got his. Thanks man.
