I recently had the air cleaner apart on my 3.0 X-type. When you remove the upper cover to access the air cleaner and remove it there should be 2 fasteners in the corners closest to the front bumper. These screws hold the bottom of the box to the sides of the box. the 2 air horns coming into the box face are held onto the radiator support by two screws that are connect to 2 nuts inside rubber isolators.
if the air horns are falling off the face of the box then they are broken off and probably can't be repaired. The previous owner had a PCV hose failure and substituted the right part for a piece of heater hose. his repair broke the mount of the air cleaner resonator. I attempted glue repairs without success. if you download the SNG Barret parts catalog and go to page 36 you can see a blow up of the air cleaner. it doesn't show the interior fasteners since the bottom is sold as one piece even though it is 2 pieces.
