Measure the diameter, it's probably 3". You should be able to get a 3" silicone coupler at the autoparts store.

I've found that at NAPA you can buy like 3 feet chunks of semi intercooler piping stuff for way cheaper than silicon couplers, they are reinforced rubber.

I work at autozone and we have 3 inch diameter silicone couplers for like $8. One of those would work fine.
