Reinstalling/Replacing my vacuum lines and just about ready to reinstall the oil bath filter on my 1.7L set up. Does anyone have some decent images of installed oil bath on their early model? Looking for the best way to orientate the top and bottom halves of the unit.

The way I bought this car, the hose connecting the top snorkel was interfering with the throttle spring.

Thanks!

I have not ever seen an original oil bath air cleaner oriented as Paul has his on his Jan '70 1.7, and I worked in a Porsche dealer service dept. in the mid to late '70's, and have owned a Jan '70 1.7 for 41 years. Don't see that it makes a whole lot of difference, except it just doesn't look right to me...sorry Paul (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) , I do love your yellow car (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Here is some info from the owner's manual, note the last bit about alinging the top and bottom of the filter assembly:

Here is a photo of alignment marks that I have always used to line mine up:
