Default A/C Filter??

Can this be replaced easily? I think mine get wet or something, cuz when i turn it on it kinda smells like an old dish rag for a few seonds then goes away. It only happens when i turn on the A/C so i'm pretty certain it's the filter or something to do w/ it.

Maybe the condensate drain is partially blocked and holding some water in the air box? I've had small leaves in mine before too - it's easy to pull the motor/blower out - just disconnect the wiring connector and remove 3 bolts. Just an idea....
