Default Hood scoop suggestions??

Hey so I'm pretty new to all this car stuff but anyway I found this 99 Mustang Gt on Craigslist and the owner said his mom swapped a 5.0L engine into the car. The only problem is that the air intake for the engine is sticking out of the hood. Does anyone know if there is something I can do about this ? Thanks
Here's the link for the listing https://detroit.craigslist.org/wyn/cto/d/99-50-th-anniversary-mustang/6531778690.html

That is not a stock set-up, just so you know. That hood was cut
do accommodate the intake manifold used. They may also have
had a ram air scoop on it at one time. You can probably cover it
with a scoop... I would not buy that, personally...

Ask if the pop can is included...

Also hoping you noticed:
No battery.
No stereo, oh, it's sitting on the passenger seat...
Left hand steering wheel control missing.
DIRTY as hell inside.
Wire harness hanging out the passenger door.
Passenger door lock/window buttons caved in or missing.
Passenger side dash vent broken.
Shedded snake skin hanging off the driver seat.

I mean, it looks like animals were living inside it...

I'd go with a 3inch or better cowl induction hood. Try Cervini's webpage.
