3520h Oil Filter

[ning]

Hi all. I'm looking for a local replacement for the oil filter for my Branson 3520h.
The current filter says EA00001160B (OEM filter), and I haven't been able to cross-reference it to anything else.

I found this post which appears to suggest a Baldwin B1432 or possibly Wix 51522, but I'm not sure it's correct.

What do you all use for this engine?

I have the 3520CX so you should have the same motor.
I know Carquest 85381
And Napa gold 1381
work.
Both have been on mine.

In a pinch the Wix 51626 works for me. It's got the same filter housing diameter and thread as the stock and is actually a bit larger (longer).

Thanks folks!

Thoughts on oil?
I've got Rotella T6 5w-40 and Delo 15w-40 (both HD diesel oils), and the manual says 10w-40. I can go buy 10w-40 in town, but my guess is three are as good or better than the manufacturer expects.

It's typically 35-60°F here when I'm working in the winter.

If you have both on hand use the 5w in the winter and 15w in the summer.. if your oil changes work out like that.

I've been using 15w-40, Delo or T5. Our winter temps are similar to yours. One of my manuals says 15w40 above 20 or 30 degrees (can't remember which), and 5w-40 below. Others say 10w-40.
