Steve,

They're as cheap as dirt these days, brand new from the US.
Do an eBay search and you'll find a number of US sellers.

I bought one recently for my 495 and I think, landed here, it was about $130 Aussie pesos.

All you may have to do is lop off the airfilter-side spigot.
It's about 50mm too long (well it was for me) - a hacksaw, a file and a steady hand should do the trick.

Cheers
Paul
