Dont happen to have a pic of the filter do ya?

Was this one of the "Ebay Spec" K&N oil filters? I looked at this but ended up buying a Ryco. If its done up so tight you need to use a spanner to take it off then its done up way too tight anyway.

Just got reply from K&N. They will refund me the price of one oil filter AND 5 qts of redline, $150 in total!!! Plus they will post extra two filters. Thats what I call customers service!
