As I remember the filter on the 8N I had, it was made by a filter maker and like the filter on the Continental engine in my standby generator is plumbed into the engine with steel tubing and standard fittings. Maybe a Fram C3 filter housing. Check a GOOD filter catalog (not at walmart) and you should still see the filter housing is available.

A bypass filter only sees the oil that is released from the pressure lines by the oil pressure regulator valve. The main oil flow goes directly from the pump to the bearings. The excess goes to the bypass filter. Its not as good as a full flow filter that is the modern standard, but it was much easier to retrofit to an engine and was better than no filter at all.
