Cracked flex pipe what size is it?

Did my oil change today and noticed that the flex pipe on the j pipe was torn and cracked. Looking to replace myself basically cut it out weld a new one on, but I'm not sure the size on the flex pipe. Does anyone know the size of the pipe.

ahh, I see that you're going to weld it yourself.
I usually take my broken stuff to an exhaust shop, throw the guy a 20, and ask him to take care of it.
since, thats what they do all day, everyday, he has no problem matching up the size.

I weld pressurised pipe for a living I think I can handle exhaust pipe with my miller hobby welder. I don't want to cut off the flex pipe to get the size I would like to know b4 hand so I can start and finish the job in one day.

I'll even help out some guys who need stuff welded on the Acuras. I.got 6g at 2" pipe certification and structural certifications. I can weld support beams in buildings. Very well qualified to weld exhaust pipes.
