if you have lpg then the inlet manifold effectively lengthens the rubber hose connection between the air box and the inlet manifold and makes it all a bit tight, bit it will locate correctly. Top tip is locate the airbox in the two holes and start to fix the top catch to the bulkhead then manipulate the tube on, adjust and do up the jubilees. You don't want any air leaks as it messes the mix up massively on gas and on petrol, check for air leaks with a little carb cleaner once it's all tight.
