914-6 M471 Options

[M471]

Hello! I am new to the 914 World. I recently purchased a 1970 914-6 believed to be an original 'dealer installed' M471 car. The motor is a period correct 2.5L Twin Plug with original 46IDA Weber Carburetors. The engine is believed to have been with the car since it left the dealership. The chassis has been stiffened, the car has 'S' calipers, drilled rotors, KONI adjustable suspension, 10K tach, Scheel driver's seat, and lots of other rare goodies. The COA lists FINLAND PACKAGE and LIGHT METAL WHEELS as some of the options. I am curious if there are any tell-tale signs I should be looking for in order to establish pedigree. Any idea what the Finland Package is?

The COA lists FINLAND PACKAGE as one of the options .... Any idea what the Finland Package is?

There have been a lot of speculations over the years about that option.

At this point, i'm pretty sure this is a mistake as Porsche started to reuse option codes from other vehicles that had different meanings.
My best guess is that this is a internal mixup at Porsche.

The closest i have ever come to something that might actually make any sense is the "Heavy duty air-filter" listed below as Finland equipment:
