The owner's manuals on both vehicles says the oil must be changed within one year if the oil life monitor doesn't go off before then. So these Purolator(Motorcraft) and ecore(AC Delco) filters can be safe for up to a year?

I dont think there's anything wrong with ecores, I use them. I just wondered if they were safe to use for a year.

Based on the owners manuals, yes.
But is it still functioning as it should, and I think generally speaking new things last about 1/5th as long as old things.

I spun the filter off and looked inside it a couple years ago, looks brand new from looking down the center hole...
It mounts horizontal, so it drains pretty much dry.
It's still on there to this day - - it is so rusty, you can hardly tell it was ever a Napa filter to start with.
