Thanks. I know the Denso filters tave the base plate hole threads start just about even with the base whereas other filters are down 1/8- 3/16" depending on how the base plate is designed ( punched) and how thick the gasket is. I will say the "o-ring" style gasket onb the denso is a good feature - the filter can lip limits the gasket crush and helps prevent leaks (I just had to say _something_ good after trashing the Thailand made toyota (denso) the past few ... I plan to try the denso again next OCI - now what syn to use ... oh my brain hurts !!
