Default need advice on throttle body elbow bellows tube

my elbow tube on my throttle body is torn real bad,i saw one on ebay but its for a lt1 1le car,says i had to drill a small hole for the small air line on top,but thats no problem.but it doesnt have the opening at the bottom for the long tube at the bottom,can i still use it with out the large bottom tube.

Yes, the long tube is just a silencer. Many people have "upgraded" to the 1LE elbow

That "Donkey Dick" is a pain in the ***, mine fell off once and the car ran like ****, I thought I broke something till I got under there and saw where it fell off.
