The filter housing is obviously homemade. The engine is a 3 hp Fairbank Morris Z, which probably didn't have a filter originally, but it seems like a good idea to have one.

There are no numbers on it, and the NAPA guys can't find anything in their books. Of course everything is make year model there and they don't deal with much small engine stuff anyway. Does anyone have any tricks to find a filter than is 6 inches in diameter and 1.75 thick? I'm sure it was a common part at the local hardware store back when the tractor was made, but now I'm stuck trying to find a replacement with no idea where to look up filters by size.
