Good morning, I went to clean up the engine compartment of my 914 1.7 and I took of the air cleaner cover and there was no air cleaner. Further more there was oil in the air cleaner pan. I was worried something might be wrong so I cleaned all the oil from the cleaner and when I went to order a filter I started reading about an "oil bath" air cleaner. Now I am wondering if there was supposed to be oil in my air filter pan?

the oil bath was round and steel, all 70-72 914-4 cars wore it. If you have one, you just clean it and fill it with oil to the red line. It works well so keep it.
