Fitting a stock snorkel over Evo 3 16G

Seems in my haste to pull apart the engine bay (replacing the head), I've displaced the little rubber ring that goes over the turbo inlet, that allows the stock snorkel to fit properly. I remember it being a soft piece of rubber.
Does anyone recall where I can find/make one?

Thanks!

I'm sure someone here has one laying in a parts pile. Post a WTB ad for one.

I had some old large truck water hoses that were used for IC piping on my car. I cut a section of one of those for that purpose. Of course you have to have a corresponding size. Radiator hose of the right size could also work.

Yep. Managed to slice a piece off a silicone hose that fit just perfectly.

The rubber piece is needed for a 14B and NOT for a 16G.

^ This. I removed the rubber when I installed a s16g many years ago
