Get a section of 3" corrogated aluminum dryer hose from your local building supply store.
Bend the ends to fit; I put mine between the floor and a piece of wood and leaned it until it started to oval.
Good luck,

Subject: d pillar air intake hose
Hey gang,
Wondering if anyone has a source for the ribbed hose in the d pillar
that connects the upper plastic part to the part behind the taillight.
Not even sure what to call it. It looks like a 3" dia.
metal/plastic/paper hose, but compressed into an oval section. Open to
suggestions.
Mice managed to shred mine and made a nice nest in the air filter
housing. Got that cleaned up and put 1/4" mesh over the opening in the
d pillar behind the taillight, but would like to replace this hose.
Thanks.
