Type 3 and type 4 with the fan mounted on the crankshaft means you can keep going in the event of a fan belt failure as long as there is life in the battery.

If you mean engine cooling air then as answered above.  If you mean air intake for mixing with fuel to make it go 'bang" then that's not on the photo.

Indeed the term normally refers to fuelling. As such your air intake is usually where your air filter starts.
