Should be one on the engine then. No big deal.
Anecdotally, I got a case of 3593B Pentiii 
for a song years ago. I don't even know what the B suffix means because all you can really find now is the 3593A?
Anyway, I just finished it off -- I ran them on lots of older Subarus and Hondas. I can't tell you if they worked well, only that gravity still works today and all those vehicles are still on the road (these are vehicles I service regularly)

Very common size, also fits most Fords and even my 21 VW Jetta.
Ironically my Edge takes a filter most commonly used on GM.
Still a smokin’ deal at barely over 2 bucks a filter. Did the OP ever cut one?
I don't think I could bring myself to use a filter that cheap. Can you trust a generic name filter that cheap?
If you get good oil for cheap, do you not trust it?
The filters have good reviews, and have been working without issue for me. I personally wouldn't run them as a 10k mile filter, but for a good ol Toyota motor that's easy on oil, a 5/6k mile OCI with a good filter like this is just fine. Heck, they are cheap enough, you could change the filter every 3k miles and still come out ahead.

As you know the price doesn't always determine quality & sometimes we get lucky to have both low price, high quality. In this instance the consumer wins & gets both. This is a good quality filter at a sale price. Some of these are made at the same factory Premium Guard uses & if you've spent some time in the Oil Filter threads you'll see first hand how good they come out. Not sure if this particular one is or isn't a PG but Pentius has made a decent filter too.
Here's a basic Pentius White Can:

It's not really a "generic" filter. Pentius is an American corporation that got financial backing from General Motors about 20 years ago.
The Pentius website doesn't refer to any of its own filter manufacturing plants. Instead it refers to their manufacturing "affiliates" in Asia. This likely is Premium Guard. For its UFXL filters (Ultra Flow Extended Life), it lists the efficiency at 99% at 20 microns. I'm good with that.
They also use a manufacturer out of South Korea as well.
I'm @ ~ 2k miles on my Rodeo, & over 1k miles on my Civic with the UFXL filters & HPL 5w40. Oil still looks very clean on the sticks. Will be doing a filter change at 5k miles on both vehicles. I'll post a c&p of them when that time comes.
96% efficiency @ 20 microns.
