Do you mean Tie rod, conecting rod is in the motor. If it is tie rod than the rubber thingy is the greese boot. If it is bad you can pick one up at your local parts store

Dust seal, grease boot, bushing? Now that we're all on the same page bushing would be a bad description but they are often called that. I would go with dust seal or grease boot. Or how about foreign particle shield (just kidding). Daystar and Energy sell cool urethane replacements for these.
