I'd assume they're called many things. Flanges, Grommets, *little rubber things*.. Or did you mean gaskets?

Up here in hicksville there aren't any places that sell them alone. Had to use black rubber plumbing connectors for my intake, but I'm afraid of them decaying in the heat. Let me know if you find a good price for them online, or I may even pay to have them mailed wink

I have one more...

Hose Techniques

This guy is very helpful, but they are on the pricey side.

Another option is to get nitrile coolant hoses from a machine supply store. They usually come in sizes ranging from 1.5* ID to 4* ID. They can be pressure rated to several atmospheres, and some are heat and hydrocarbon resistant. Not too expensive, either.

The lack of availability around here has led me to these.

good luck,
