Screw the chainsaw. Dime a dozen. I'm more interested in the amplifier.
I stopped by local Stihl dealer today and got a 1125 120 1615 B (1/2 that attaches to carb) and 1125 120 1620 B (1/2 that faces the user. The bags did not say B, but the numbers on the parts did. Based on imperfections in casting, they came out of the same mold as my mesh filter (I'm not a mold expert, but I can't see how that can't be the case). They were out of the T-nuts but I can use the one from the old filter.
Upper left is the "user" side of the mesh filter, lower left is the user side of the Stihl 1125 120 1620 B and the lower right is 1125 120 1615 B
Above is photo of light shining through the new filter (just one half) to give some idea of the porosity.
The real issue seems to be the mating surface between the carb and filter. I'll try and post pictures of that. Anyway, the two halves combined were 14$ at the dealer, and I got a scabbard for the 18" bar on the saw for $5.99.

Some not great, but higher magnification photos of the air filters.
Above is the "mesh" filter (Stihl 1125 120 1600), units on the rule are in MM.
