Does a 2 stroke phazer have an air filter ?

Hello, I'm new to this site and pretty new to the sled world, I just naught a 2000 phazer 500 with 520 miles on it and am getting it all ready for snow. I went to clean the air filter and couldn't fine one anywhere in the air box, they are suppose to come with one right? If so please direct me to a site were to buy, thanks for your help.

No air box filter on that sled.

Babbits part house is showing an air cleaner but it is not part of the air box itself. it appears to be not much more then a screen in one of the flexible joints between the airbox itself and the carbs. it calls it
