Oil Filter, Fleece or Paper?

I have a new C 250 with the 1.8L with only a few hundred miles on it and I plan to change my own oil. I received a reminder in the mail about the first 10K service and it listed all they do which is the oil change with synthetic oil and a fleece oil filter replacement. I checked with my dealer and they told me that the 1.8L gets a paper filter and the 6 cyl engines get the fleece. I assume they are correct and there is no fleece oil filter option for the 1.8L?

I went through my owner's manual and I didn't see anything about changing the oil. I think they want you to bring it back to the dealer. I was curious to know if there is a fleece filter available for the 1.8L. I even saw two different MANN HU514 Y filters listed on one site. They were both paper but one had sort of a funnel on top or bottom on it.

thanks for the oem part number and I'll try a search on that and see what comes up. I have a feeling there is no fleece filter for the 1.8L.

My dealer wants to sell me a paper filter and I was trying to find out if there is a fleece filter available for the 1.8L, it appears not, the fleece filters are for the 6s and 8s.
