Air Cleaner ID?
Hi Everyone,
I have a '66 f100 with a 352. It had an oil-bath air cleaner (pictured below) when I purchased it a few years ago. I assumed it was original--the truck is pretty original throughout--but I'm not so sure anymore after reading a few other posts. The air cleaner was originally painted black, had a snorkel, and has two inlets. The truck has what appears to be the correct Autolite 2-barrel carburetor, and the air cleaner fits on top of it properly.
Does anyone recognize it? Was it an option for this truck?
Thanks for your help!

Optional C8AZ-6767-A elbow nestles into C8AZ-6A892-A rubber grommet on top of air cleaner. This is where the PCV hose that routes from the left oil filler cap connects.
Oil bath air cleaner standard equipment thru 1967, then an option beginning in 1968. Paper filter air cleaner optional 1965/67, standard equipment beginning in 1968 (see pic at left).
1963/64 F100/700 292 & 1965/67 F100/350 352 use the same oil baths. If PCV present, there's a nipple made as part of and located on top of air cleaner where PCV hose attaches.
