Default Newb stock intake question

So in the process of swapping my stock intake tube and filter back on to replace the JLT RAI I realized I may perhaps be missing a small part. There's nothing to connect the hose that comes off of the IAC valve and attaches to the stock intake tube. It's a female to female connection (making it impossible to connect obviously) so I'm assuming there's supposed to be a small plastic tube in between the two.
The JLT has a tube built into it and I probably lost the stock piece when I removed it.

Can anyone confirm this? And possibly let me know where to find one. I've checked rockauto and I guess the next stop is the dealer but I'm not counting on it. Thanks

Thanks, I'll try to grab a pic tomorrow. Only thing is, the intake tube in the pic you posted is aftermarket with the stock filter housing haha.

Yeahhhh, that's what I thought, thanks. $24.37, seems like a bargain for a part that cost $.05 to make in China.
