Rolf,

They are Vokes filters, very similar in design to the rare ones used on the motor cycles.

Rolf,

No, not those fitted to motorcycles
I meant that the desert filters made by Vokes for the British wartime Norton, BSA, Matchless, etc. was of similar and smaller design. They used an inlet chamber with a number of ports in it, felt tubes were attached to the ports, the tube was folded over a bar at half its length then attached to another port. End result being the air is drawn through the felt tube from the outside.
