This filter had to be three years old and the last of these 3387a filters I had in storage. No date code taken. External can grime and the matte finish diminished my hunt.
You can see the code under my dating-mileage photo.

I'm trying to make out the date code. It's either F11E30 or F11G30
looks like it could be F11G30, but November 30, 2015 hasn't come yet. The G could also stand for 1997, but the P1's didn't look like that back then (old P1's were blue in color and no textured grip--they changed it around 2008).
Note that the code cannot be F11G31 because November only has 30 days.
Maybe that G is either a C (2011) or E (2013). There is definitely a top, middle, and bottom line

OP - can you post the date code from the dome end of the can?
At my age, there are only a few items I'd dumpster dive for. A production code off a used oil filter is not one of them. BITOG Investigator Slacktide has it right. It's likely a "C" and a 2011 production.
three years ago purolater had an ok oil filter that was before all the tearing and quality issues with purolater started happening.
