Does anyone know the oil filter housing part numbers? There should be two different housings, one for the YZZA3 filter and a different for the YZZA5 filter. The difference seems to be one has an extra cap to help remove residual oil from the filter before full removal (see photos below). The cap can be removed with a 3/8" drive extension. YZZA5 comes with an additional gasket and plastic drain piece for this extra cap.
The 3IS came with metal filter housings but I could only find plastic housing examples. These better show the extra cap at the end anyway.
This is the one with the extra cap (per this thread, the AWD comes with a metal version of this):
This is the one without the extra cap (per this thread, the RWD comes with a metal version of this):

Here’s the metal one from my 2014 IS350 AWD.
No part number stamped on it, just TOYOTA.
And the KN filter I used with it.

Thanks for the photos. That is the same filter housing as my 2016 IS300 AWD. This should confirm all 3.5L AWD come with the extra removable cap. I still assume the RWD use the second option (without a removable cap).
The reason for my post is to find the part number specific to the RWD metal filter housing. I'm looking to swap the housings to eliminate the removable cap. The filter elements are identical so it should be a direct swap. Finding the part number seems to be difficult.
