Air Cleaners for 72 B

Can someone recommend a basic exposed element air cleaner I can use to replace the factory ones on my 72 B? Hopefully something common enough that I can get them via Advance Auto Parts.

Thanks,
Deadeye
 
I made one similar to the K&N aluminum out of wood. I used the stock filter elements and the bottoms to the metal air cleaner along with the stock bolts. I used silicon rubber to seal the filters to the wood and lock tight on the bolts torqueing them down to just snug as the filters just began to give and the locktite holds it fine. I ran the edge through my router with a Roman Ogee bit. Looks and works great and no money out of my pocket.
