Default Air cleaner assembly/pan for quadrajet

I've got a R4-4MV Quadrajet carb and am in need of the air cleaner assembly. Can anyone advise on the correct pan/assembly?

It seems like it needs a spacer ring?

No spacer ring needed with an original Quadrajet air cleaner assembly.

If I recall right only Chevy and GMC pickup trucks used about a 2” tall metal spacer ring.

I found a dual snorkel that fit perfect. Yet another issue that over-analyzed.
