I'm gonna say, no. I have one from a 76 D100 400 2bbl.. and it looks like an oversized 318 cleaner. Quite tall.
Never seen a fancy air cleaner on a truck.
Ok well maybe a 65 426 wedge truck.
 
Nicks garage has a wonderful thread on hi perf mopar aircleaners. But it doesnt have anything on the trucks. You can find out what you have there, but i doubt it is right for a pickup too. So.....i guess im no help at all, lol.
 
I agree: About twice as tall as that and I can't remember but I think the snorkle was oval shaped. I bought a 400 D100 new in 1976 and another one in 1978. No photos of the engines unfortunately.
 
That one is not correct. But if it fits why not use it. The trucks with 360, 400, 440 had the same size air cleaner. The 360 and 400 I believe are the same as they were on the same series Holley 2 barrel where the 440 had a TQ and a bigger mounting hole. 318 trucks took a smaller one. Here is what yours would of looked like new. Also most trucks did not have the hot air flaps to draw heat off the exhaust manifold.

I tried using a large diameter c-body air cleaner on my 1978 D100 after I swapped in a 360 with 4bbl carb many years ago. The car air cleaner would not work. It's too big around. I believe it interfered with the wiper motor or something on the firewall. The truck air cleaners are a smaller diameter, more like the 318 air cleaners as pnora said above. I ended up using an aftermarket chrome Edelbrock aircleaner on my truck.
