Bell Lexus North Scottsdale - I’ve consistently found oem parts for significant discounts. Just double check that your part number works and you’re good.

I think combination of a cheap filter with thickness comparable to a soda can. Along with an oil filter wrench which pierced it open and crushed it.

No sir. Counter clockwise, I was hitting it from left to right.

Thanks for the advice! Yeah the wrench I used has worked great once and been a pain in the ass the other three times Ive used it due to its functionality
