All the cowl hood air cleaners were the same 350ss, b/b Z/28. Only difference is the height or existence of the extension ring.

Nope, 350s had different vent tube; automatics had the vacuum door in the snout and used the pre-heat tube. BB & Z/28 used the same unit but OE bases had a flat bottom and a 90º vent tube. Service bases had bead formed into the base and the vent tube was changed to 2 45º bends due to interference with double-pumper carbs. Some service units came with chrome lids; never used in production.
Not certain but I believe 71-72 Chevelle bases used an angled snout.
