Default Cold air intake

I have 2005 f150 5.4L triton and I found a k&n cold air intake for my truck but all I'm missing is one piece. I'm missing the 90 degree elbow that you put behind the throttle body so the throttle body gets raised up and the front will face out toward the front of the truck. I can not find any of these parts and I'm getting very frustrated cause I don't want to throw this whole system away just because I don't have 1 throttle body adapter elbow. So if anyone can tell me where I can get one of these that would be great. I have some photos of the piece I need from a YouTube video.

This is the position of the throttle body on the truck stock.

This is the position of the throttle body on the truck with the adapter that I need.

Here is a picture of the throttle body with the elbow that I need behind it.

Why not just get an elbow for the CAI tube...leave the TB where it's supposed to be.

I don't know what you mean by that. For the tube to fit under the hood, the throttle bodies position has to be changed.
