The parts person was just being lazy or stupid. You need the engine model number and you can tell what filter you need. If you put the wrong one on it will make the mower run too rich. It will load the oil with gas and make it kind of back fire thru the carb.
Model FH601V-AS15 or BS15 Model FH601V-CS15 or DS15 Both are externally vented M150403 Paper element $15.25
Model FH601V-ES15 or FS15 is internally vented M150949 paper element $15.25
Foam pre-cleaner for both is M140295 $5.25
Check which one you need and then check the engine oil again to see if it has gas in it. If you do have the correct filter but have gas in the oil then I would check the fuel pump. It uses the air plus made by the pistons moving in the block to pump a diaphragm in the pump. If that diaphragm has a hole in it you will get gas into the oil. Then the crankcase vent will let gas fumes go into the inside of the air filter and it will run too rich.
