The video for the Ford 7.3 tear down is up. He's not a fan of the oil pump design. This one died from the known cam/lifter failure issue.
For some reason this site is not letting me embed a link but here it is to copy/paste:

Just was clarifying as a lot has happened in the last 12 years in the filter business
Definitely wasn't questioning your impression of the new filters as they are definitely of a better construction it seems vs. the blue ones. We did see a couple of the PF48A's and PF64A/B leak though at the seam where the can and the baseplate mate up. Right out of the box too. So I don't know if it was a bad batch that slipped through or what. 48A would be on like 07-14 LS V8 engines, 64A/B would be like 2018-current Chevy Equinox.
