Intake manifold looks like a 325i, part number will be 13 71 1 726 325 for cars with T shaped idle control valve like yours.

Forgot to mention, it's called a Rubber Boot on the ETK, not much more than £10 new from the dealer.

Checking the ETK for this part is pretty useless, as there were quite a few different types, and the only way to get the right one is to give the dealers your chassis number, it just so happens I know the part number for your one as I have exactly the same one that I recently bought.
