Cone air filter differences?

[freak]

I have the cone air filter on my 1997 OHV. I looked it up on Wix web site and it says 46416. I ordered one and it's not the same as the one that was in it. What filter do I need?

Interesting, but i don't know the differences, sorry.
Maybe there was air filter housing design change?
