A quick/stupid question

What is the base/plate or whatever the air filter sits on called? basically what holds the air filter to the carb. I've been trying to find one, let alone what it's called online for awhile now and no results. Basically mine is cracked and I can only find universal K&N ones, but would rather just put a new mazda one on.

Thanks

dont really understand what your trying to say...post some pics of it...that would help a lot.

AIR CLEANER!!!!!!

lol yeah that too...the only thing i can think of is the little warmer plate that goes inbetween the carb and the intake...but that would only be if he has the stock carb

air cleaner housing

geeze, that's probably the one phrase i didn't search for, thanks guys!
