by me too
I did choose 2. aluminum when I replaced the rubber factory ones.
Reason was that I think they are more robust than the OEM rubber and where readily available as a very reasonable priced kit.
Your option 3 and 4 are more expensive but for me they don't offer much more advantages over 2 to justify the price.
Might be a point if you are racing the truck?
Cheers
Mike

I chose Aluminium to reduce the weight hanging off the plastic Intercooler connections
