Default Ford Racing 90° Oil Filter Adapter

Anybody running one of these? https://performanceparts.ford.com/part/M-6880-A50



I have been unable to get my remote filter mount to stop leaking. It seems to leak both at the threaded nipples on the filter mount, notwithstanding the copious amounts of thread seal applied by the previous owner(s). It also seems to have a bit of seepage at the adapter on the block as well as the oil filter gasket itself.

I'm fed up with the whole mess and looking at the 90° adapter to put the filter back on the block, facing forward and slightly down to clear the hose from the radiator to the water pump.
