Default Wire ties on steering rack boot?

Just had my car on a lift to change the oil, and noticed the wire ties securing the steering rack boot. Not a hose clamp but a wire tie! Like what was used years ago to wrap 100lb bags of potatoes. WTF? But yet there's like 10 bolts holding on the splash pan under engine. So it can't be used to save weight.

If I need to replace this, do I get the part from Nissan or my local potato farmer?

Don't get me wrong, I still love my Z! Wire ties and all.
