You old dudes got any numbers for those paper filters? I find that counter men at the auto parts stores around here feel hard pressed to pull a filter out of stock even if you have the right number, let alone search through their inventory for one that would fit something like this.
A picture would "say a thousand words" also. I saw one conversion where the oil bath filter was completely gutted, steel baffles and all cut out. That would be very hard for me to do since I looked for almost two years for an original period correct oil bath for my 1950, 216.

Oops, lost the point of the thread, yep, just wash it in a tank of solvent, no need to remove it.
