Who told you it doesn't go thru the paper ? Cut a filter open and you will see it does go thru the paper.

And you know this how?
Rip apart a regular Delco filter.. take out the pleated paper and try to blow throught it. What's the micron size of air?
If that can't pass through than how can oil? Oil passes over the paper and is removed by getting particles stuck in the pleats..
I will confirm all this when my oil guru is back on Wednesday..
