I would wager the filter has never been changed. I drove quite a bit before I went after that filter it did not seam to bother the air flow I did not run the blower after it had to be better.
Nope the leaves do not self clean : ( This is one of my pet peeves when I open the hood customers will rake it out on my shop floor GRRRRRRR I make a big deal out of that so they will remember it... A customer did that one time on a 2000 Buick 3.8 FWD some must have fell between the engine and fire wall when they got home it caught fire and burnt to the ground. Plastic fuel lines feed the fuel rail they run on the fire wall.
In most cases I would have been held liable for that, She took it in stride because I made a big deal out of it and turned it in on her insurance. I now go behind them and make sure none fell on the exhaust manifold.

I guess they have worked knee deep in speedy dry and walked in the fluids everywhere they have worked they think nothing of it.
