Super A oil change

I'm just starting to clean up the new Super A, do a tune up and oil change. A couple questions. The original owners manual has a handwritten oil filter number in it. NAPA 1152. I went to NAPA and they don't make a 1152, they do have a 1125 and I thought maybe he was "dyslesic"? 1125 isn't it! I took the old one out and it's a NAPA 1172, local store can order me a 1172 for $15.00 each! I went to Advance Auto to cross the 1172 with a more inexpensive Fram or whatnot but they don't carry the crossed one! What do you other Super A owners use? OK, next question. I read the tuneup guide on this menu to the left and it say's to use a non-detergent oil on old engines that haven't gone through a rebuild. I use a mustiviscosity detergent oil on my 51 8N without issue. Should I chance it with the Super A? I'm guessing there are some opinions about this. Thanks.
