WTB 08+ sti intercooler silicone elbow hose

I've noticed some wear on the red intake elbow hose into my stock tmic. The wear is right by the edge of the hose so I'm afraid it's not going to form a tight seal.

Anyways the OEM replacement is over 300 dollars. Seeing if anybody has a leftover elbow hose from upgrading their intercooler or something of that sort. What aftermarket options are out there?

Thanks!

I would find out what is causing the wear before replacing it, since it isn't really a moving part. Pic of this "wear"?

A bit late for the pic, but i think i didn't have the clamp on correctly for a while and it kinda rubbed the edge of the hose a little thin. still forms a good seal but since i have the intercooler off right now seeing if anybody has a spare and willing to sell to me.
