Thanks Tolmach.

Would silicone be okay to replace that valve cover to intake hose with? I read that silicone isn't safe for oil. I'm not sure how much oil goes through that hose but I know there is some, because it's all over my supercharger throttle body tube thing.

My Weapon R intake tube came with a silicone hose and I've had it on for about 9 months with no issues. No softening, no swelling, no discoloration, no deterioration. Now that you mentioned it, I'll keep a close eye on it for any changes and will post them if anything happens.
