Switching back to stock air box

Switching back to stock air box
i'm switching back to the stock air box/intake. I currently have a K&N on it that just met the reaper. Need everything from the turbo forward. What parts do i need? I found this assembly on ebay
http://www.ebay.com/itm/191861584427?item=191861584427&viewitem=&vxp=mtr
And this 3C3Z-9C623-AA but I am also running into this part number too 6C3Z-9C623-A. I think it's for newer truck.
What other parts do I need? Assume I have nothing.

I can take a couple of pictures tonight, but I have nothing attached to the inlet of the turbo. All the existing piping is labeled K&N so I figure I can't reuse any of it with a stock setup, plus some of it is cracked/broken anyway. Basically, I need everything to build a stock air intake from scratch. The only things I have that I can reuse is the MASS airflow sensor and the filter status checker thing.

Sorry didn't have time to post pictures last night. I stopped at the used parts store and it turned out to be a Banks unit that was in pretty bad shape. So back to the drawing board. Here's pictures of what I have now:
This connects to the K&N filter:
This connects the above pipe to the turbo and is damaged. Can't be reused but seems to be the only thing that might be OEM. I think, but need confirmation, that this is the Ford part I need in addition to the unit on ebay that I linked to, that and the rubber hose that sticks out the front of the snorkel. What is that for and where does it go anyway?
bthr22, is this the same piece you reused? Do you mind posting a picture or 2 of your setup so I just see what it is suppose to look like?
And here is a shot of the area in the engine bay:

This looks similar a stock component, but is slightly different than in my '07 which has a bellows formed into it:

You need a CCV o-ring:

OT but is your FICM missing grommets? Picture angle maybe? I have an 03 so maybe it's slightly different, just appears those hold down bolts are resting on the FICM ears.
Also curious why that FICM looks different, like it's not as thick for some reason. Sorry, I'm "one of those" that notices stupid stuff like that
Edit, nevermind had I taken the time to read your sig I would have seen the Techsmart , dur.

The FICM is actually an Alliant Power reman unit. I reman'd it again with a TechSmart power board. Just popped the clam shell apart and replaced the board. Pretty easy! I've never had grommets. There's a bracket that bolts onto the air intake pipe and attaches sits over the FICM ears to hold it all down. Hopefully I'm not missing something else!
The battery tray has an extension coming off the side of it with a cradle for a filter to sit in. Hopefully that is right!

But that looks like the correct piece connecting to the turbo. My picture isn't as detailed but mine also has the bracket and CCV tube on the underside.
Connecting to that for 2005 trucks is the rubber accordion piece. I had to buy that one separately from fordparts.com. It is part # 3C3Z9B659AA and is about $30 when you register on the site.
Next is the actual housing you linked. I think I looked at the same eBay listing, but Sean (Yahiko) offered to grab me one and ship it to me for $60. The 05 trucks were a little different. Some used the MAF sensor, which it looks like yours does. Mine uses only the intake air temp sensor, which has a different opening than the MAF. So make sure the one you get has the MAF opening.
The hose in front fits into an opening near the top of the power steering fluid reservoir. I also chose to do the zoodad mod too, where you cut out a bit of the fiberglass on the inside of the grille area to get direct airflow into the main snorkel.
The filter has two posts that fit into grommets, which are part of the battery tray. It looks like a semi-circular seat that hangs from the main tray, make sure you still have that.
Lastly, when you install the housing, it is a pain the first time. I put it all together before installing instead of trying to do it one piece at a time. And while not necessary, you might want to remove the bolts from the degas bottle mount to give yourself some extra room. Save installing the air filter minder for last so you don't risk breaking it trying to get the housing in.
Hope this helps! Let me know if you need anything else!
