Well, shitting my pants never actually crossed my mind, LOL, but I do get your point. I drive the car without a worry. She drives fine and doesn’t burn any appreciable oil (at least so far). I do agree that metal dropping in to the filter while cutting it crossed my mind, though I put the Dremel on very high speed and used a super fine carbon cutting blade to take that into account but that still isn't perfect, so some of the debris may be from the cutting. As for the blue compound, I recall other folks have seen that when they've cut and I'm pretty sure that debris didn’t come from cutting it open.I don't like cutting those filters with anything other than a bespoke filter cutter. They can make you shit your pants with the extra metal that they drop in there.
Also, do these push oil through the center and out the sides? If so, youll need to cut the paper out and look through it that way.
