I've been using K&N HP-2004 as others have as well. Don't know if it's worth the K&N premium, but it's only $16. The PS-2004 is only $8 and still K&N.

I use a NAPA 1189. It's easily available, got reasonably good reviews and is inexpensive.

Re: Oil filter 1981 Spider
I use various filters and have had no issue. I find I like the larger Bosh and K & N filters better with respect to oil when changing oil but I have not broken one open to see what was filtered. The only filter I would stay away from is the Fram filters.
Buon giro a tutti! - enjoy the ride!
