Oh, you mean like a "net" around the filter? Yeah, I think I've seen those. Kind of plasticy stuff. What's the brand name on the filter itself, should say on one of the end plates. You can also quote the MB part number if you want. MB changes stuff like this from time to time, I know I've seen some of the older filters come apart when owners were a little to "flexible" on their "Flexible Service System" and left them in a few dozen thousand miles too long.
On the observation that the filters are the same between your C280 and ML320, these are in the same "family" of engines (M112) and are practically identical. The oil filters are the same.
