So, I'm looking to purchase another 996 this time a Cab and I came across this one in my home town. The question I have is there any information on why would the previous owner change to the orange colored throttle body tubing and what is the benefit?

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

No pic showing, but many have changed out to a silicone tube for better air flow.
I have done the same on mine, mostly for sound, possibly more air flow for slight improvement on throttle response...
