Since zero data exists that these filters harm the engine in any way, shape, or form.
A pine needle would be ground up in the oil pump and forced though the oil passages. Nothing inside these filters could do any harm.

Wasnt there someone on the MB club of america forum who stated that his 616's engine failure was caused by the internals of a purolator filter. Im trying to find the link to thread but i remember reading about a purolator filter that broke apart in the oil filter housing and seized up the engine.
