I need some tips on what foam to use to replace my old Intake box foam? Is the foam that "mates" the air intake tube with the air intake box. Thanks in advance

thats a good question. in need of a solution myself. i do remember seeing other members wrapping theirs with tape to seal it off. works fine till you need to change the filter or plugs i guess

Home depot or Lowes both have dense foams, in the window sealing section.

I'de get the stock pads.
FYI, If anyone needs foam for anything else bike or car, make sure it is "closed cell" foam, which is not absorbant. Open cell foam is the opposite, and basically a sponge.
