Yes, the replacement vapor canister filter that I bought from the truck catalog for about $10 was a white disc about 1/8" thick and 5" in diameter - and if I had to guess I'd say it was Dacron material or a composite rather than fiberglass.
Home Depot has many different types of HVAC filters readily available and the part I got from the truck catalog looked as if it could have come from a basically similar type of material - except the Home Depot filter is at least 2" x 2" and I could have cut 16 discs out of each one of those for about $0.37 each
I believe the California 1970 C10 vapor canister had only two connections - just the recirc and vacuum - (no PCV or drain yet)
So yes, with the 1970 version the bottom filter disc just slides / stuffs into the recess under the vapor canister - my old one was very oily from oil vapor coming in from the engine compartment (its a 45 year old truck that was used regularly)

The white one I got (729150 Standard) is more like 1/4-3/8". Sounds like the same material however. I believe you're right about the 1970 canister. I can only speak for my 71 canister, that it didn't have the funnel cap. Doesn't mean it never had one, but I suspect it didn't.
