I was changing my spark plugs yesterday when I noticed that this tubing going from the air filter housing to the throttle body thingy was dry rotted and split. I can not for the life of me figure out what it is called to search for and buy a replacement. Any help would be greatly appreciated. TIA.

Intake manifold? They turn a v6 sideways in that Lexus? It's a front wheel drive?

If just a sleeve, measure and replace with silicone rrom tge auto parts store..
It's just part of your intake assembly.

I think that is called the air intake boot.

Thanks for the info, everyone. Hopefully, I can find it at a local joint.

After the word thingy, did anyone hear their reading voice change from normal to flaming but me?

About 9$ at autozone if you go silicone.

Your car knowledge sounds about like mine.

Loosen the two hose clamps and remove the piece that's bad. Take it to your local parts store and tell them you need a replacement for it.

I did that last night, but they had the D squad working during the super bowl and they were worthless. I'll probably do that tonight if I can't figure it out before then haha
