Stens is one if the major players in the ope aftermarket...this is one of there filters..same size/apps as a fram 3614/wix 51348....came off a 20hp kohler command...no idea on oil type or usage.....
 
I have used Stens before and other OPE filters too such as Rotary and Oregon. This looks like a solid filter. Maybe a pre Ecore Champion Labs model??? Thanks for all the pictures too!!

As the OP says Sten is big in the OPE (Outdoor Power Equipment) market... since Tecumseh got jacked by vulture capitalists and we were flooded with Chondas and such to fill the void, Sten and Oregon have stepped up to the plate to find us the parts we need.
 
As the link below illustrates, the Stens looks to be a Champ made filter very similar to/same as STP and other jobber filters like Firestone and WM TLE. Obvisously this one is a non ecore version. It has a very unique, odd bypass mechanism.

The giveaway that it's a Champion Labs filter is the "AA" stamping on the baseplate.
