Default external cone filter on snorkel

hey guys i got a friend that has a snorkel on there zj and the air filter is on the outside of the jeep, the cleaner broke of from the mounting flange so they want to get a new one n i was just wondering if the reg auto zone cone is fine for external use like if its ok in the rain, i ask this because the one that broke is just a fine steel mesh on the outside of it theres no other material on the inside of n the ones from autozone say its a cotton filter???? im just wondering if they could use that one

i can't find a pic of my buddys old ****** that had a tin child's sand pail mounted upside down, overtop of his cone filter on his snorkel.

Just remember this, guys. Wet paper or fabric filters don't pass air! I think a double layer of copper window screen would work and also look cool.
