Both filters from our 1996 Porsche 911 (993). The 213 is mounted by the oil tank and oil thermostat and the 229 is mounted on the engine. This is a dry sump system.
Both filters are typical Mahle quality; dense pleats, very well made. Neither had an anti-drainback valve and both appeared to have pressure relief valves in the center tube, see the pics. Center tubes were conventional; holes, no louvres. These filters were COO Austria and the OC213 I replaced it with is China COO.
Mahle, along with Mann and Hengst are my go to's..at least the European manufactured ones. We will see...
