Just changed my oil today and used an oversized Motorcraft FL1A oil filter.....good filter. Used 6 quarts of German Castrol 0W30 synthetic oil(M5075...gold not green). The dipstick reads a little lower now that I have a bigger oil filter. Is this ok or do I need to add a little more oil? It's still inside the safe zone bit not as high compared to using a regular sized filter.

For comparison:
Regular sized oil filter...oil level is 3\4 inside the safe zone
Oversized FL1A oil filter...oil level is 1\4 inside the safe zone
 
Add some oil; You won't be able to sleep tonight if you don't, & you know it.
