What I have here is a Bosch 3410 that was inservice for approximately 4000 miles over a period of six weeks. Mileage on truck at time of change was 10,000 miles. Oil was Motorcraft Synthetic Blend 5W20. I cut open the unit using a filter cutter and found the top of the element was bent downward and there was the interesting crimp pictured below on the bottom plate of the element. The center tube did not appear to be compromised nor did the media. Just an interesting find.
