I've got a 2010 ford explorer 4L engine it takes a 22x1.5 thread filter. The 22x1.5mm oil filters are new to me.
There's plenty of room to run something double the length of a ph2 filter.
 
I use the TG2 on my old F150 5.4 never found a longer filter that would work. The TG2 has slightly more Sq. inches of media than the PH2 that is about the best I could do.
 
If youall want an oversized 22x1.5mm thread oil filter that fits most engines look up whatever filer brand you like for a 2014-2019 ram 3L eco diesel.

This one is around $25.
A fram synthetic endurance FE2 for $13 is probably the way to go. Assuming a vehicle is well kept Ideally I'd run a $13 FE2 and $25 PP every oci. Maybe run the FE2 for 2 oil changes.
I'll probably run the WL10058 for that first run of VRP, cut it open after 3k to 4k miles and go FE2 or wl10058 based on what's in there and more VRP.
 
I got a quart of oil in there and it wasn't quite all the way full.
WL10058, made in Korea.
Wix 51372, doesn't say where it's made, which is a pretty good clue as to where it was made....

This one is going to be on there for a while. Probably do 2 oci. This thing is a dumpster.
 
The chances of a PH2 sized filter loading up all the way in a normal oil change interval are about nil unless you've got a sludge monster 4.0l.
Did you see my "ran for 2 oci" fe8a?
That's about the size of a ph2.
I'd say it was about as sludged out as you'd want to see them.
Also put the next higher level of oil in there this time. PUP 10w-30 euro L. First oil change was all leftovers from PP jugs, 5w-20, 5w-30 and 10w-30.
See page 3

I think my point still applies. Your example seems to be from a highly neglected engine, though it doesn't seem like it was so bad it would be going into bypass all the time. Don't skip oil changes and let an engine get sludged up and a standard sized oil filter will give excellent service.

If someone takes care of their stuff it's not really possible to load up a ph2 or ph8a size filter.
I'm running VRP on that dodge and changing it every 4k. I just did an oil change and didn't change the filter 2 oci ago.
I'll probably do 5k on VRP this time and cut the filter open and see how it looks.
 
PH10590 or CQP 95157 with 32psi bypass. Longer, but some sacrifice in diameter. Longer than the PH10575 with a bypass of 22psi. Personally, I run the 95157 on LS, 3.6 and Ecotec 2.5 motors with no issues. But, that's just me.
