It isn't sold by itself from BMW, and I don't want to spend $300 on a new hose, just for the clamp.

Would a round generic automotive hose clamp in the proper size work? What hose is this?

The more I read, it seems as though a T-bolt clamp will do the trick. It is where the charge pipe connects to the throttle body on a 535i.

Charge pipe keeps coming off, order a new pipe with blow off valve, and going to use a t-bolt clamp.
