VW never fitted the 1.9 AAZ into transporters
so as it's a modified engine .. did the air filter get changed when the engine was changed?

Left hand side of the engine there should be a large black cylindericle shaped object. At one end the are 3 snap clips. It's in there.

No air filter inside? There should be a nut that yin undo the the filter slides out.

The air filter you bought is the right one if you have what I described earlier.

If there is no air filter in there then obviously your emission issues aren't caused by a blocked filter.
