That is a GUD aftermarket filter.   What I see strange is the receipt lists the AC part number.  Attached is a picture of an original AC filter I sold a few years ago.Jim DSent from my Galaxy

It is still pliable and not torn up.There is a formed logo in the black rubber. (see photo)Interestingly, it is from Sears and cost $10.36 a long time ago.Does this look like it would be close to original?For your entertainment.Don From: Will Seay <Tigers at embarqmail.com>Date: Monday, January 17, 2022 at 2:38 PMTo: Don Antilla <fast427 at sbcglobal.net>Cc: Allan Ballard <aballard at ix.netcom.com>, Ron Fraser <rfraser at bluefrog.com>, Tiger List List <tigers at autox.team.net>Subject: Re: [Tigers] Air cleaner color It's grey hammertone.  I cropped Alan's first picture to show an area with correct color and texture.  Find attached. Will - 382001570 Tigers at embarqmail.com  On Mon, Jan 17, 2022 at 2:13 PM Donald Antilla via Tigers <tigers at autox.team.net> wrote:Alan: Yours looks very much like mine, but your paint is in better condition than mine.I also shot my photos in natural, non-glaring lighting conditions.(I shared three photos in an earlier Email today.)The more I look at my Air Cleaner in outside, cloudy light, and then at your photos, the more I could be easily convinced it is Hammertone. Regards,Don Antilla  From: Tigers <tigers-bounces at autox.team.net> on behalf of Allan Ballard via Tigers <tigers at autox.team.net>Reply-To: Allan Ballard <aballard at ix.netcom.com>Date: Monday, January 17, 2022 at 1:49 PMTo: Ron Fraser <rfraser at bluefrog.com>Cc: Tiger List List <tigers at Autox.Team.Net>Subject: Re: [Tigers] Air cleaner color Here a few pictures of the bottom piece of one of my air cleaner housings. This housing came off a Mk1 Tiger and went on a shelf exposed to the elements whereIt sat for years - until I bought it at a “yard sale” for 60 bucks, along with other Tiger parts I believe the paint is original - what’s left of it. The paint appears to be alligatoring and falling off. The pictures were taken with a DSLR camera using natural light from a window to the right.  There is no “hue” from an incandescent or florescent bulb, or any light bulb. Perhaps someone can tell if the finish was hammertone. The color must be the factory color as toned by the years and weather. -Allan BallardMk1a TigerSeries I Alpine(V6, T5)-Atlanta On Jan 17, 2022, at 11:13 AM, Ron Fraser via Tigers <tigers at autox.team.net> wrote: Bob                Interesting – can you send a picture? Ron Fraser From: Tigers <tigers-bounces at autox.team.net> On Behalf Of Bob Dobrowski via TigersSent: Monday, January 17, 2022 10:26 AMTo: owain.lloyd at gmail.comCctigers at autox.team.netSubject: Re: [Tigers] Air cleaner color Interestingly, my air cleaner housing which is in rough shape but appears to have original paint still on it definitely is NOT Hammerstein type of paint.
