I am not sure on the dimension of the air intake, sorry...However... A standard air filter/an aftermarket panel filter is the best for a diesel engine.

Pretty much

A standard air filter will be fine.

Lol he was proper talking it up! So wouldn't make that much difference to the standard filter in the Air Box?

It MAY give you a slightly sharper throttle response but most likely it will just give you a bit more noise
