Default Emissions Hose Problem HELP!!! PLZ!!

Ok i recently went camping and a emissions hose burned off and shot hot emission into my engine compartment melting my wiring harness. I got the wireharness fixed and all good but i need to replace this hose. I have no idea what it is called or where to get it. Please any 1 tell me what this little hose is called and a link to where i can buy it thanks.
P.S. i went to my local chevy dealer they said to get this little hose i needed to buy a whole assembly that was $150.00.

THANKS.

That is just a high temp plastic elbow for the air injection system. Chances are, the check valve (the part that has the least amount of the elbow still on it) is shot and was sending hot exhaust gases back through, destroying the elbow. Some people have had success using regular reinforced rubber hose, but I am not sure how long this would last. I find it utterly ridiculous that you would have to buy the whole hose assembly for just that elbow though... Maybe the dealership is trying to snow you..?

You may be able to find it at a junkyard...

I would definitely get a new check valve!

Grab a new check valve from your favorite autoparts store and put on some rubber hose. See how long that lasts.

I saw this emissions question posted 5 months after you posted it but have the correct part # for this fix.
Chevrolet part # 10217106 and costs around $8.00. Dealers can order it quickly.
I tried 5/8 heater hose and it lasted about 10 minutes at highway speeds. I bought the Chevrolet part and it lasted about 1 week of driving for me (1800 miles)
So your other replies tell me my check valve is bad so I'll try that part, Thanks
