Does the airfilter intake not have a vacuum controlled valve in it ?
This should take air from above the exhaust manifold when the air
temperature is cold and from further away when it's hot.
If it's a really early filter housing (metal) then the intake may need
to be manually moved for winter or summer.
If you fit a K&N and use the car in the winter you might suffer from
carb icing.

The original filter housing on the TDLM seems rather OTT and draws air
right in from over the very hot exhaust manifold, so I've picked up a
rather neat looking bolt on K&N filter. Was just wondering if anyone
else had made the change to one of these? If so, did you change the
jets as the kit on mine recommends and what did you do with the
crankcase breather?
I'm thinking the best option would be to drill a hole in the base to
match the hole on the original filter housing and feed the breather
into that. Slightly worried about heat soak but the under-bonnet
temperatures in mine are sky high anyway so wherever the air feed
comes from it'll be hot.
