MG TD TF 1500 - K&N Air Filter Part #

Good day again all:

I notice that NTG Motor Services Ltd., of Ipswich, England, offer a reproduction TD Oil Bath Air Cleaner Assembly which utilizes a K&N air filter unit.

I was wondering if anyone would have the part number for that filter element ?

I am considering the alteration of an original AC # 32 assembly, sans oil, but have concerns that the K&N replacement may not suffer a proper fitting within the existing (oil) reservoir ?

Any thoughts on these queries will be greatfully accepted;

Jack,
Don't have a "part# for TD" but this is how I found K&N to fit my TF.

(Ended up buying "1" filter and cut it in half.)

Curious wouldn't NTG Motor Services Ltd., of Ipswich, England give you the # for one they are using?

Jack, are you wanting to put the dry filter in an existing oil bath housing?

Good day again:

About as thick as two short planks at times I be !

Never thought to contact NTG. Although; I have tried to contact other firms, directly, for part numbers in the past and been rather put off by the replies received.

Therefore; I reckon I didn't want to get NTG annoyed with me ?

I had thought of trying the renovation ploy, but on reflection, to cut away an original filter cage from the cover, would drop me in a bigger mess than I conceived. Also, if all went up the spout, I'd have buggered up an original bit.

I think I'll give the whole silly idea a miss and thanks for the input lads.

Respectfully:
