I bought a new SPF bellows-style rubber boot from Olthoff Racing a few years ago. It was pretty cheap including postage. You could also order one from Rick at Time Machines Auto near Buffalo; closer to you.

I'm a bit of a "Cobra purist" and prefer the original-style bellows shifter boot, but came close to ordering a Lokar leatherette boot instead to avoid having the gear lever kick out of third gear. In the end the rubber boot softened up quickly enough; I just had to keep an eye on it until it did. Who knows, next time I might opt for a Lokar... I dunno.

I don't see the rubber bellows-style boot on the Olthoff website right now, but you could phone and see if they have 'em in stock. They also seem to carry a Lokar-style boot.
