Default Silicone piping for AU1 throttle body

What is the best size of (round) silicone piping to fit over the (oval) AU1 throttle body?

Your input is much appreciated!

76mm is what I've got, and I think the next size up is too big. 76 is a ******* tight fit! You need to heat it up so that it can stretch enough. Boil a few kettles of water and pour them into a bucket and sit the silicone in there for around 5 minutes and give it a shot. It will still be really tight but it does eventually go on
