[Tigers] oil filter adaptor

[Stu]

I'm using what looks like an earlier version of this. IIRC the Ford part
number is almost the same.   The casting is different, and it is not
painted.  It's angled backwards, the filter is almost touching the engine
mount, so it's unlikely there's space for a header tube there.  I use Fram
PH3600 or Ford FL400 filters, smaller diameter than the FL1/PH8A original
size.

I seem to recall that either on our old v6 Explorer or maybe it was the V6
Aerostar, there was an oil filter adapter that attached to the block in the
same way but was angled less than 90 degrees from the block mounting
surface, so that the filter could point straight down.  Has anyone ever
investigated this part?
