Default before my brain throws a rod

I've always called it a spark plug "boot" and/or "sleeve". The rubber shaft that slips over the spark plug.... I'm trying to order a new one and can't find it anywhere. Does anyone know the "technical" term??

Obviously, you're not working on an S2000...

I figured it out. Its called an "ignition coil". One of mine had a tear in the rubber up top and I had oil leaking down into the sparkplug.
