Torn intake coupler

Torn intake coupler
Hello
So today I found a tear in my intake coupler. Has anyone else had this problem and how did you fix/replace it? Also will this throw any codes?
Recently I been having issues with my SES light coming on and off, code is P1084 EXHAUST VALVE TIMING VOLTAGE CIRCUIT BANK 2. I am wondering if this is maybe the cause of the light. I already tried replacing the sensor but it doesnt appear to fix the problem.
As of right now, I've duct taped it as a temporary fix until i decide on what to replace it with.

Thank you for all your inputs.
I called infiniti and they do not sell the coupler piece by itself.
Option 1: try to find an oem ztube locally
Option 2: Go for the Stillen Ztube. I read a couple other threads saying the oem coupler would need to be reused to work with the Stillen Ztube. Can anyone confirm this?

The picture in here shows a built-in coupler.

The Stillen Ztube WILL need your OEM couplers, so scratch that option (I've had one before).
Looking at that Z1 intake, I bet you could just buy a silicon coupler and use that on your stock intake. Measure the MAF housing to be sure, but I think it's 3". Something like this: http://amzn.com/B004NYGSLE

Was it used? The STILLEN ztube needs to reuse the G couplers. The 350Z OEM ztube has the couplers built into the one piece design.
Here's a comparison, of the TWO different things both called a "ztube," if anyone is confused:

I was really contemplating about picking up the Z1 tube because it comes with silicone couplers which I think is a better design and material. The OEM couplers look like they can tear easily if not put on correctly.
Anyways, I just purchased a used oem z tube from a member on this forum yesterday for a good price. Should be here Friday. Thank you for all your help!
