30i intake boot - Mishomoto?

Hi all

After having an vacuum leak ( over the summer and checking the stock intake for any cracks etc, I read a bit about the stock intake boot and how it might be worth replacing it to get a bit more intake noise. I've got a 30i so the N52 engine, and I was looking at Mishimoto pipes - but they are only listed for other models with the N52, not the E89. I guess the question is would an E90 boot fit? Are they all the same length or would I need to find an alternative?

Thanks

edit: forgot to add the vacuum leak was down to the valvetronic motor gasket, now replaced and problem fixed
 
I removed the flexi connector to the air filter box, lets some noise out.
Also protects against any flood water getting into air box.
Don't think ram air makes much difference unless doing 200mph...

The connector that goes into the grill?

It wasn't an air intake as such, it's just to replace the air intake silencer on the intake boot (after the MAF sensor).
