Hey folks — I’ve got an old Powerlite 65cc chainsaw, model 18L11, serial XA291. It looks really vintage, and I can’t find any parts or info online — everything seems discontinued. I’m hoping someone here can:

ID any parts that are commonly interchangeable with other makes/models, or

Suggest a donor saw that has compatible parts I could graft on.

What I’m looking for: sprocket, air filter & inner air filter parts.

I heard that the Honelite saws are very similar to it. So I picked up this air filter on Amazon https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09C89QF27 and it didn't fit.

I'll attach as many pics and measurements as I can... nm can't find where to upload photos, hopefully information is enough. I know links are sketch, but here's a link to Google Slides with all the photos on it. https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1asIT1oSp7Rl3-FdeGW2s3x5t1Wj4X9RQ3TCOpHzntsM/edit?usp=sharing
 
Take a look at the Honelite or Pro-Craft models for compatible parts. You might find that the sprocket and air filter can be swapped with these brands. Just make sure to check the dimensions before you buy anything.
 
You could also check the part numbers for the coil and carburetor, they sometimes align among lesser-known brands, even if the filters don’t.
