Default Does this look normal? *Picture Edit*

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/81296/vwpic.jpg"></center><p>
I don't know what anything is called, or what I should refer them to...

I was looking and noticed this. (sorry if the picture isn't the best quality. I took it using my cell phone.)

I was wondering if this is normal. The 'Air intake tube' leading into the air box is sitting loosely. There is a gap between the actual intake and the hood (?) You can see what I am trying to say.

This looks like it would be a loss in performance. Anyone else have this? Any suggestions on how to fix it? Thanks for any input!

That looks like a VERY normal red x to me!

Default "This looks like it would be a loss in performance"...

How about removing the intake tube, and looking at it. $5 says you'll figure out what's going on as soon as you pull that intake tube off. No comment on the performance aspect. $5 says you'll figure that out if you sit down and think hard about it.
