Default Mystery part: '88 Turbo S front shock boot

I want to replace the damaged boot in the front shocks of my euro-spec '88 Turbo S. The car has option M758 which includes front coilovers. Surprisingly I can't find the part number anywhere on the internet nor in the pdf PET. As far as I can read, the part number is:

951.343.505.30

Any clues about what's going on?

Yes, that's the part number in the current Porsche parts catalogue.

To me, the mystery is the part number from the boot that was in my car (most likely the one it came out of the factory with).

A quick Goog shows absolutely no hits other than this thread. Strange indeed.

The 993 part (picture) and part number look suspiciously similar: 993-343-505

I don't know what's so surprising about NLA parts on rare 35 year old car. I mean its practically an antique now.
