71 280SL Air Filter Housing
« on: December 10, 2023, 22:27:34 »
There is a hole at the bottom of my air filter housing. Is there anything that goes in there? I know there is the rubber stop that goes underneath this in the body of the car but is there another stop that goes in this hole?

Is it not a drain hole?

That is what I think it is. I do not suppose anything goes there.
