No I could not but the old Mann filter (HU718/4, Chrysler #05102905AA, MB#A 112 184 03 25) looked like paper and was specified for the '04's, later the fleece filter was specified HU718/5 and it was white and called a fleece filter. Naturally it cost more. The paper filter was said to be good for 7,000 miles as well.
The Mobil filter looks like paper,although it has man made fibers in it as did the Mann paper filter probably.
When I was getting my free twice yearly oil change at the dealer they used the paper filter, no worry as it was changed after less than 2,000 miles each time.

I guess you pay your money and take your pick. Just stay away from Chinese filters.
