The OAI (Outside Air Induction) hood is also referred to as RPO W25. There are more Cutlass models with them now than ever left the factory with them. An OAI hood you're looking for is the same for 1971/1972. Thorntons makes the best reproduction that's as good as OEM, but they're not being produced currently.
Ram Air is the term for Pontiac just as a matter of interest. For a good to excellent 71/72 hood pricing is like platinum. They command $'s north of 3500.00 and that's just for a hood that will still cost $$$ to fit and finish.
