Just go to your local auto parts and get some universal boots.

You just cut the ends off to the diameter you need.

Why do I feel like I answer this question on a daily basis... :(D):

Steering rack boots - Generic - Supercheap/AutoOne/Repco etc

CV boot - dont be a tight arse, spend the $39 on eBay, replace the whole joint. Kit comes with boot, grease straps, everything.
If the boot is that old that it's worn itself a hole, chances are the joint is worn as well.
