What is the safest way to match a Case IH Puma 160 air filter?

The buying order should be: old filter number first, housing fit second, then cross-reference. Start with 87683000, but do not ignore the a primary, outer and inner safety element setup.

What should I buy for a full Case IH Puma 160 air-filter service?

Do not accidentally order 381423R92 when you meant the safety filter, or AF4061 when you meant the outer filter.
