The double hump top shown in the first photo is a replica of the original hipo air cleaner lid. The contours are not very close to the originals, unfortunately, so I can tell at a glance. The Falcon Sprint option came with the same air cleaner as did some T-Birds of the era, as well as a few police cars, although those lids were not chromed. I have purchased examples of all of these over the years. The dress up kit available from Ford at the time also had this lid, so it could be found on many different cars.
