Bought one for my truck F33144. Always bought there oil filters. Not happy a fuel filter with there name in China made. How long has this been going on?
All of the big names outsource lower volume parts to someone else. They don't have a Purolator plant in China but they put this fitler in the Purolator box from what I know.

Their.
I've noticed a lot of fuel filters made off shore. I've been buying OE to avoid the issues with questionable off shore parts. You're probably best to avoid Purolator oil filters as well as they've exhibited poor quality control for a number of years now.
I've installed a Nissan fuel filter from the dealer that was made in China but it felt nicer than the ones I've seen in the aftermarket. Granted, it was the "value" line but it was all metal vs. the plastic topped filters I've seen in Fram and other packaging.
