Default T/C drop & snorkel material?

So I need a t/c drop and I plan on making a homebrew one since it pretty straight forward. Ive seen most people use a 2x1 inch rectangular tubing but I was wondering if 1x1 would possibly work. My only worry is it might have too small of a foot hold on the frame and wobble. Here's what I can get my hands on easy.

And also I'm looking at doing a homebrew COWL snorkel based off of http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f11/m...norkel-727684/. I was thinking this would be extremely simple of I can make it fit right. Just some 4 inch solid corrugated pipe.

the 1x1 might not be big enough. and for the air pipe try to use as little corrugated as possible. all those ridges will affect air flow too much. try to use pcv instead keeping out any ridges.
