The chrome, dual-snorkel air cleaner was actually utilized only for the dual quad (2 4-bbl carburetors) "Super Wildcat" 425 engine on Wildcats, Electra 225's, and Rivieras. I hope that someone else will correct me if I am mistaken, but I do not think that the chrome, dual-snorkel air cleaner was available as an option for the single 4-bbl cars.

Cars having the 425-cid engine with single carburetor utilized a painted, black air cleaner with "Wildcat 465" logo. The exception was 1966, when the Wildcat GS and Riviera GS were equipped with the single 4-bbl 425 engine. During this year, the single 4-bbl 425 engine in these two models used a chrome, single snorkel air cleaner.

I think what he is looking for is the chrome single snorkel from a 66 Wildcat GS. The only problem is it wont fit on a Carter carb. I did see a stock chrome dress up kit on ebay a couple of weeks ago.

I have a spare hood from a 64 LeSabre. Don't know if it is the same as the Wildcat.
