I think the LRA one is still made.
This has always been the most common fit and they also make a fitting for the barrel air cleaner.

the rovercraft one (BA3710) looks to be the LRA one, LRA get these made so must sell them to rovercraft. So they are exactly the same item

Just a hint that works for me.
If you are going into dusty conditions , you can buy Unifilter inserts that fit under the head of the snorkel.
They are designed for ARB and other plastic snorkels so you have to make the inlet a little smaller /thicker so that the gasket that holds the insert in does not get sucked down.
I did this by slicing up an aluminium beer can and gluing a couple of thicknesses in but only 10MM deep.
I did not have to change my main filter for a whole trip including maybe 5KK on dirt on GRR, Tanami, Plenty etc etc . You get 4 inserts and swap them over in dust.
The air side of the Unifilter was filthy on many occasions but the filter side was squeaky clean. This also does not cause any problems with the MAF getting oily as the main filter catches any oil.( none I noticed)
Unifilter do not recommend for highway but I didn't really notice any loss of power.
