This is a problem on lowered Corvettes.

Also, on my 1MZ-FE the oil filter is located between the rad and the exhaust manifold. I use the oversize filter for this application which decreases the distance from the manifold to the canister. I always wonder if heat transfer is cause for concern.
I made a heat shield for my filter when the bigger filter put it closer to the manifold. Simple to install.
