Go to a hobby shop and ask for tuned pipe coupler, or high temp silicone hose in the right diameter.

You can skip O'Reilly(checker, shucks,kragen), Autozone, and Ace. They don't have it.

It's just to couple the two pipes together, it doesn't need to be real strong if the pipe is supported properly.

I have seen them in larger sizes so I know they are available.
