Tough one...either spend £6 on a filter or risk losing all your oil and blowing the engine...hmmm.

quite true.. its only a dint like.. and the gasket and seals are fine, but how could it possibly just loose oil due to a small dent on the top!?

I should imagine the oil filter is under a fair bit of pressure...i'm an old bugger and dont trust my eyesight.

i think the question should be do you expct one dented filter to filter all four of those oil cans? Thats far to much.
Ps i suspect it be ok but for 4 quid why risk it.

It looks fine to me. Install it and if there are no cracks it will hold the pressure.

I'd use it... But then the nearest supplier to replace it is a 25 mile round trip. If it was closer I'd take it back and tell them that's how it came out of the box!
