Hi, can you confirm that this is the tool required to remove the top of the oil filter housing unit so the oil filter can be replaced. Thanks, Mike.

Yes I can confirm the spanner fits the oil plate allowing you to remove the top with a 32mm socket

So just to get this straight in my head... (never done the filter on this stupid car)
This spanner lets you just take the cap off without undoing the sandwich plate? Meaning you don't need the seals?

Yes it will allow you to break the cap off after its been over tightened in the past meaning you will not need to replace the oil plate seals everytime

The cap is removed with either a 32mm shallow socket or a 1/2 inch socket extension, it screws down into the adaptor tube. The adaptor tube locks the sandwich plate in place and it is this which requires Chippy's special internally toothed ring spanner to remove it from the block, or to separate it from the cap if the two have come out together when undoing the cap. The cap seals to the adaptor tube with an O ring. The sandwich plate has two seals, the upper between the collar of the adaptor tube and the sandwich plate and the lower between the sandwich plate and the rim of the filter pocket. These gaskets were originally very thin metal items, no longer available from VML, but graphite replacements are available from Mat Jackson. The tube tightens to 120Nm and the cap to 25Nm. Hope that helps!
