Broken air box and air intake hose-sources?

I was changing the air filter on my 85 Turbo for the first time today and noticed that the air filter box is pretty cracked and broken, not sealing well at all. What is the best source for a new one? A wrecker? I imagine they'd be pretty pricy from a dealer.
As I started checking other things along the intake path I noticed that the rubber elbow that connects the intake pipe to the turbo is split, which probably explains the poor turbo performance lately! I looked on the GAPA site and found an “Air Intake hose” that looks like it. Is this the part I'm after? There is also a smaller outlet on the engine side of the elbow with what I assume is the “Hooter Valve”. The rubber outlet of this valve isn't connected to anything at the moment. Is this the way it's supposed ot be?
Thanks again everyone.
John
