Need your help

The air intake pipe on my 350i between the engine plenum and the air flow meter has split. Can anyone tell me where I can purchase one of these or if there is anything else I could use. Have to heel and toe to keep it going at traffic lights, people must think I am showing off and saying look what I have under my right foot. Sounds good though. Steve D

Temp repair, very sticky gaffer, duck or carpet type tape quickly. Used self amalgamating tape then overlaid with gaffer myself once, lasted a few years.
