None. So S&B and perhaps other CAI manufacturers understand their product vs potential water entry and debris. Rather than engineering baffles to address this in general, they sell an optional filter cover at additional expense that requires more frequent maintenance. Hum. The video example showed a paper filter, not the oiled one. Wonder if there is any difference?

I would consider a CAI especially if Volant did one for the Ranger Raptor. They offer the Donaldson Powercore filter that was a factory filter for the Ford Super Duty Diesel, a few years.

They offer lots of Powercore filters that might work in the SB CAI.

I used the wrap on my last 3.5, the filter in that seemed to get pretty dirty. You can always add it later. I also have the side cover on so there is less exposure to the elements. I like the dry filter, no chance of over-oiling and easy to just blow stuff out with air if it does get gunked up.
