Nice clean oil filter housing! The block is cleaner that is was, but definitely doesn't look as clean in this photo.

The pick is pointing to a bit of gasket material that got stuck. Make sure you get all these little bits out.

Oil filter housing split open. Dorman gaskets at left. I put down a cardboard box to protect my workbench.

All that gunk behind the serpentine belt is the bottom of the oil filter housing.

I went in through the dash which was super easy, once you get over the fear of breaking something. This photo shows the bottom of the HVAC controls, there are three clips. One at each end, one in the middle.

After soldering it back on. Just add a little solder to those three connections and voila! Works again.

Here's the bottom of the HVAC panel. Just a couple clips hold it, but yanking on it is definitely scary. I'm notorious for breaking plastic clips.
