How can i tell the G tube and Ztube difference?

Hello

I've done the search but couldnt get the answer i was looking for
Im new to G35 just got used 04 6MT stock on august,
and as i read about the car, Z tube cought my attention
so when i looked into my car's tube, it didnt have the "Elbow" that G Tubes have, now how can i for sure tell the difference between Z and G tubes
i dont want to buy Z tube if i already have it,

only difference would be "elbow"? or size?

Thanks

ND-

keep your stock airbox, wait until the oem filter gets dirty, then replace it with an amsoil dry filter.

Uh... Wait a minute... My 06 G35x came with the one on the left, not the one on the right. Did Infiniti switch at some point?
