I bought 3 feet and cut the length I needed. My original plan was to go with as much aluminum tubing as possible but I couldn't find anyone to mandrel bend it and I couldn't run it straight to the airbox.

Also, from the 45* rubber hose to the rubber "accordian boot" what is that? More of that 4" OD aluminum tubing?

Yep.

What I'm looking to do is run the MAF right in front of the TB so I can put a nozzle on one of the rubber hoses for a dry kit setup.
I saw Oxidizr's dry setup when I went to get my Magnaflow cat-back, but it's been awhile. It looks similar to yours but his has the MAF on the TB.

I may end up putting the MAF in front of the TB if I ever get around to making a second intake system. I think a 4" to 3" rubber reducer would work well for that if it isn't too long.
