I was searching around to see if I could find a part number and haven't come up with anything. I did run across being able to order one from Auto Barn for $11.95, but it shows no part number. Might want to give them a call and see what they say.

In my search I did find the ones below though. I know there are more, but I will go back in and add them as I see them.

STP - S9018R
Fram -CH9018
Purolater - L15436 or PureOne PL15436
NAPA Gold - FIL 7082

Chrome Plated Oil Filter Cover - $7.99

Yup, the oil filter is cast into the block with a removable cover and replaceable element. The factory element is paper I believe.

Maybe, I missed something here.....

Why would you want an oil filter other than OEM?

If the reason is economics, it really does not make sense. The GM dealer's here in AZ. sell them for just under $10.00. I've seen them in secondary markets for just over $8.00.

"Aftermarket" filters sell for about the same or more, depending on the brand. And you have no assurance of correct filtration other than the filter distributors CLAIMS......I mean how can they really test a filter for a vehicle that is only 1 year old (rhetorical).

Oh, and MOST filters are produced by the same companies, in different packaging....with slight ineffectual changes....so says Consumers Reports.
