I'm having the same exact problem. i went to HD and only found the 1/2" el fitting with one barbed end and the other threaded but the threaded end was 3/4" and i thought it was going to be too big to thread into the 3" pipe.
I couldn't find a 7/16 at all but i was thinking 3/8 might fit since that would be 6/16" (just 1/16" off). anyone disagree? can we just clamp the hose onto the fitting if its too loose?
and about the hose... your auto part store should sell silicon hose in the cold air intake section(plus it comes in blue, red....)
the washers and nuts should be easy to find.

tubbyfatty, you can Google barbed or brass fittings on Google and search around on plumber warehouses.... i did not think their prices were right. the half inch brass fitting i seen was like $15 or more

may I suggest plastic fittings instead of brass? you can get nearly any size fitting and all you'd have to do is tap the pipe and thread the fitting(s) in. and if you're worried about sealing, a thin bead of sealant on the last few threads should seal it up.
and if you have an issue finding a 7/16 fitting, going up to 1/2 and using a 7/16 barb would be better than going down to 3/8 elle

drill the hole in the pipe slightly smaller than you need and then use a 'tap' to cut threads the hole so the fitting screws in. that way you don't need a nut on the inside.
