That is correct, because that filter has automatic by-pass built in. If the filter element becomes clogged, a spring loaded ball in the top of the center post moves and allows the pressurized oil to bypass the filter element.

This is actually the same filter that both Jim and I have in out cars. It is stamped inlet on the bottom and outlet on the side.
