SILVER Star
The extra little disk in your Amazon link is the part that is stuck on yours, so it does seem included. It’s part number 15643-31050 for the record.Oil filter housing question here.
I am looking to replace the plastic housing for my next oil change. I see that I can use the Venza/metal housing LINK HERE. However, in the pic below, the area where you put the socket extension is seized/glued on and won't come off. So basically, what I've been doing the last 2 oil changes is just removing the whole filter housing iteself via the wrench and not using the drainer tool that comes with the filter. I just leave where the socket extension goes in place...
Does the housing I linked come with this? I've been told I have to move over some parts from the plastic piece to the metal one. Want to make sure I have everything I need before changing the oil. Thanks.
Also, if you recommend a better source for the part, let me know. Looking to keep it OEM, no need for the fancy aftermarket stuff.

The part you need to move over is the perforated tube that sits inside the filter itself, and I’d assume yours is still ok.
Those do appear to be Genuine Toyota parts, but if you absolutely want to avoid the risk of counterfeits you should spend the extra to order it from an official dealer parts site. It won’t be a whole lot more money, maybe $10. The disk will be separate though, so don’t forget that part.
