Despite the fact That I don't own a Mog I think I may be able to
help you out. Melvyn Rutter (?sp) has a device that fits over both
carbs and draws air through a "pancake" air filter. Don't ask me
his address It's probably in any of the English vintage car mags.
Alternatively, You can order a SS bonnet, with the scoop, either from
him or another supplier (Perhaps even Morgan in Malvern). That
should provide you with enough space to fit any air cleaner you want
beneath it. I'll ask my friend with the +8 for further info.
