The correct answer is: Zero

From Gauss law of magnetism, we know that the net magnetic flux through any closed surface is zero, i.e., B·ds=0, because there are no magnetic monopoles. Here, B is magnetic field and s is surface area. The number of field lines entering the surface is equal to the field lines leaving the surface.
