I can't say for sure. But here is my story. . . . something to consider.
About 11 years ago, before I was keeping detailed records, I had to replace the filter on my '52 220. The new one was a little bit longer than the original and the metal cover didn't seat all the way down. I eventually got a taller cover and wire keeper and it worked fine. I recall also working on one where I think I was able to modify it by simply shortening the brass tubes and pressing the now shorter tubes through the disk to retain the correct pickup height and resulting in a shorter overall height of the filter.
