So my 1955 Clipper Custom Touring Sedan with a 352 V8 and Rochester 4bl carb should have the air cleaner with the scoops on the sides, the same as the Senior cars?

Short answer - yes.

Again, there are subtle differences between '55 and '56 versions of that dual-inlet air cleaner. Easiest tell is the type of "seal" between the large opening on the underside of the top cover that mates to the O.D. of the lower air cleaner body. The air cleaner on my '55 Patrician (long since sold) used a weatherstrip-like material; my '56s have a whisker type.
