Help identifying plastic piece to airbox. New X5 Owner!

Hi guys, just picked up a 2004 X5. I am working to get it running/looking like it did 11 years ago.

I want to replace this broken piece of plastic that connects to airbox. Anyone know the name/part #? I tried realoem but didn't seem to find it.





Thanks in advance. I will be posting some more pics as work gets done.

Thank you, I wasn't looking under that category.

Everyone on Facebook said "Get duct tape" etc. It would keep me awake at night.

Most likely the X was involved in a crash.

This X5 was not involved in a crash. Someone (not me) stepped on the plastic while it was on the floor during a service.

I'm excited to be in a X5. Had an e39 and e36, regretted selling both. I'll sell this X5 only when I'm ready to get a newer one.

Did you run a carfax prior to purchasing the X?

If a repair shop did that I would have them replaced it.

I did. Also I personally know the previous owner. He's a family friend and owned the car since nearly new.

I just sent in my non-nav radio for pixel/ribbon repair. Doing some fluid changes, power steering pump, some suspension, new hood rounded, etc. Make this baby shine.

I probably should have asked you guys for advice, but I was anxious to get started. I used this company. $109 for non-nav repair.

I saw kits for sale online for $50 or so, but I didn't want to mess with it when I don't know what I am doing.
