Where is the filter located on your car?

Is it vertically mounted or horizontally mounted near the firewall?

It almost looks like it could be horizontally mounted and near the firewall on the back of the engine. The engine rocks while the filter is hot and bangs it on something and crushed it a bit.

What is the clearance like around the filter?The "Grippy" stuff that is missing; is that from you taking off the filter or was it like that already when you went to take if off?
