Advanced Autoparts sells Mann filters under the Purolator name. Each store stocks 2 of them complete with 5 "O" rings (about $12 ea). They are genuine Mann filters made in Germany-stamped on top of the filter. Part number is L25277. 100% on this as I just came in from changing the oil not 30 minutes ago and I am staring at the used filter box.

Three things to note: 1) make sure you push the filter all the way down on the oil stick/cap until only 1 black line is visible-this is easier to do if you put a coating of oil on the "O" rings. 2) Replace all of the "O" rings (4) each time you change the oil and filter, making sure that the largest "O" ring is in the groove below the cap NOT directly under the lip of the cap - as previously mentioned. 3) My oil filter cap/stick, whatever you call it is always replaced hand tight. Mine stops turning at a certain point - when the treads bottom out. It is tight, don't get me wrong, but I have never used a wrench on it to put it on or take it off. Maybe the KungFu grip is kicking in! HAHA! I have 40K miles on the car and knock on wood haven't had any leaks.

One other word of caution: I have had the oil dip stick pop out on me, but I was never sure if I just didn't push it in all the way or if it started to push out. That can make a big mess if it comes out far enough while you are hammering on the car. Make sure it is properly seated and if it is loose, put a zip tie on it, just in case.

Good luck and sorry to hear about your mess. Like others have said, SimpleGreen is a good degreaser. Follow-up with some HyperLube from Meguiers to give your engine bay that like-new appearance and to keep your hoses from drying out and looking like crap. Keep it off your new belt.
