Joe has the P/N for the K&N filter
The Mobil 1 P/N is 'M1-209'
The Purolator Pure One is not available for the Zetec in any form or fashion that I have been able to find. There is a P/N for the Focus split port injection version and the filter looks physically very very similiar(but not exact) to ours but its not listed for the Zetec soooo....
Motorcraft is also a widely used, well respected filter for our cars.

Sorry fellas, a lot of people I know use the FRAM oil filter and the like it(but they also use dino). I didnt think it would make much of a difference, I guess you learn something new everyday. The Fram is best selling and available everywhere, but it's got structural parts made of cardboard inside! Plus a lame backflow valve. Internally it's about the flimsiest out of the major brands. Another once fine company that turned to craap when they got bought out by a conglomerate.
96 GL Zetec ATX, white with pinstripe, nickname " Sam Smooth " mods so far: CTA intake with homemade heat shield, KVR drilled front rotors & carbon pads w/ 500° fluid planned mods: exhaust (want to keep it quiet), e-ram (awaiting installation), diablo chip involuntary mods: compression increased after head gasket failure
