you can get silicone replacements on ebay but they are circa £100, alternatively start looking for people breaking mk2 16v's on here, ebay, gumtree, local ads etc

depends how knackered it is. worst case scenario you can bung the end/hole/fitting on the airbox to stop the airbox potentially sucking in unmetered air if the hose is actually split and then you are just left with it venting to atmosphere which can lead to fumes smell in cabin.
