When I go to buy American made oil filters I always look for the counterfeit ones.
We all know in 2024 China makes the best oil filters

Nice looking filters. Is that some minor surface rust on the outside in the first picture?

Appears to be some on ring baseplate seam yes. Dunno or didn’t take date code pic. Already burned up filter and other Cadillac one. Ready to be new re-bar

But some donaldsons and Baldwin made in Mexico. Like Auto Extra; many I’ve cut apart have multiple tears; can’t say same for Mexico made Baldwin or Donaldsons.

Thanks for the C&P sir. Bought two of these to run on my Buick Century for 5k OCI’s.

Got my oil filter cutting tool as well, you’ve been an inspiration to us oil nerds @53' Stude

A little waviness though honestly that looks great for 10k miles as a jobber filter.
