Just don’t want the wrong information to get spread around the forum so I’ll finish my input by saying; I don’t know where you got your information from spot or the idea that it was a paper tube. This duct is the standard Neoprene/Polyester over steel wire coil duct hose that has been used for way more than half a century in most vehicles.

Just one example of the vendors that we deal with and the one I got my duct from is Classic Parts (Chevy Duty). Call them on Monday morning and you will have your parts on Tuesday, that’s been my experience many times over the last two years.
