You could go back to stock. I have seen them crack, on the bottom after a very long time. Have not see one that completely separated like that in a while.

You could go back to stock or go with a forge silicone intake hose. Prefer silicone, go with the forge, possible in black to match. Come in other colors.

Also what year and miles does it have. Also It looks like you did not get the MINI TSB for the insulation heat shied for the turbo oil line. Might want to get that update.
