: Fuel filter question?

I just bought a replacement fuel filter. Same brand and part number as the last one.....

Luber Finer # FF798

The filter is way different this go-around. The shape of the can is different, and the sealing area in the center is different. Old one had a flanged o-ring, and a little pin to push on the detent ball on the filter housing. This one doesnt have that, and the seal is lower in the housing. I'm a bit skeptical.

What are your thoughts? Thanks!
