Red face bad intake boots

I'm working on my brother's truck this time and his clamp on the crossover pipe to the intake plenum came loose. I did the normal reinstall and made sure the clamp was secure to get him by.

This boot appears to be slightly damaged and needs to be replaced....since he can order his own silicone hose at his parts store he was asking me what size it was.

What size boots are they at the intake plenums?

99.5 and up are 3" boots.

Early 99's are 3" inlet and reduce to 2 1/2" to the plenum.
