[Dave Hall]

The warm air intake to a Beetle air-cleaner from around 1961 is that 25mm
size.

Might the Type 34s have been different? There are no smaller dia hoses
listed in the Type 3 microfilm.

the lengths on both sides, or neither side, but for some reason it seems to
have changed the length on only one side. I remain puzzled.
