Air Intake Hose - '90 Westy

[RBEmerson]

The accordion hose between my air cleaner and the air intake sheet metal has failed. The part number on the hose is 025-129-626. Unfortunately, all I seem to find with this part number is a silicon boot about 3" long, while the hose with the same part number is about 7" long - clearly not the same part.

The part I'm after is #11, but all I get on GW, etc. is #13. Look here

Is this hose NLA?

#11 isn't a real critical hose, it can be anything that fits over the hose barb. even wrapping the old one with a bunch of electrical tape is fine. that hose allows the motor to draw cooler, less dusty air but leaks and cracks won't be any sort of show stopper.

measure the fittings and there should be some aluminum pre-heater hose that'll fit it at a reasonable value

For the time being, I've used Flex-Seal tape (y'know, the kind the guy in the TV ads makes boats with) to join the hose at the split. I 'm hoping to come up with the real part "just because it looks right", but, yeah, worse comes to worse, there are are alternatives.
