ummm i think that's the same thing that's on my car, it's stock it's just a plastic filler panel for carbed/tbi/3.1L cars that didn't use the dual snorkel intake. it just pops in and out of place so chances are if your car ever had one it was taken out and tossed aside

No it doesn't cover any air filters....the air filter is the round thing 
. My '91 RS has it...it's simply a cover. Underneath it, you can see the front of the radiator.
Oh, and, it's a completely different part than what you see on the TPI cars where the filters are in that spot.

I am pretty sure you can still get them from the dealer. My camaro got one after it went into the body shop. That was a few years ago.
