I noticed the hose on the Air Cleaner Outlet Duct (plastic engine cover) that slides on the throtle body is misformed from it not being installed properly in the past so it wont slide over it. I don't see a replacement hose to replace it. Just the whole plastic cover. Am I missing something? Is there something else i can do? Can i just get a hose that replaces the Whole plastic cover?

The link I provided above is a replacement inlet pipe that goes between the factory airbox and the throttle body, plus a K&N filter. Using the filter isn’t required, but that’s how they package the kit.
The OEM air hose is a royal PITA to install, you have to rely on feel plus it's a tight fit. I use a tool like below I bought off a Snap On truck 40 years ago. I've gotten my monies worth over the years.

It's a 'tube' that you could not duplicate yourself because of the different sized ends, a couple of adapters that you would never be able to find elsewhere, a couple of fittings, one that you likely couldn't replicate, a filter that they charge 52 bucks for that used to be 65, and 4 hose clamps. All in all, in this day and age, it's not a bad deal.
