Default Intake question

I have a 2002 Z06. It came with the whole K&N cold air set up, carbon fiber filter etc.

I was recently given a carbon fiber air duct by a friend that had it laying around. My 3 questions are:

1.) Is there a way to tell if its for a C5 or C6? I cant even tell what brand it is, and I didnt see any kind of part number etc.

2.) Would it make any difference switching to this from the K&N? I doubt I would loose much or gain much, just wondering in general.

3.) Where can I get the couplers from? The K&N seems to be longer and uses a shorter coupling.

if it will bridge the gap between air filter and throttle body you should be OK....lots of places sell couplers (all are overpriced) OR you can cut yours if need be...they will slide a bit either way

Bump this.

With my filter it seems to sit an inch or two above the radiator, so it will hit the hood. Looks like a no go.

Does anyone know possibly what brand it could be? Think Im just gonna sell it.
