Re: oil bath air cleaner

I currently have 4 oil bath air cleaners. I'm in the process of getting 3 of them pristine for re-installation.
1941 - 180 Limousine (356 engine from a 1948 Custom)
1949 - 22nd series Custom w/original oil bath
1950 - Re-numbered 1949 23rd series w/1951 style oil bath
1947 - Recently purchased to replace the the bath on the 1950.
Now the question. BdeB has put up photos of the 1951 vs earlier units. Neither of these have the 'skirt' like the three early style units I have. The 1951 style that I have is skirtless and will eventually go to eBay.
Anybody know for sure when the skirted versions were used as opposed to the skirtless?
The 1948 accessories booklet shows skirtless. My 1949 came with the skirted cleaner. I'll probably spend some time this afternoon perusing the parts manuals.
