You don't have to change the O-ring at every oil change.  Only when it gets old and stiff.

To cover the awkward flat spot where a filter was supposed to be?

I work at a Yamaha dealer and the OEM filters never come with o-rings. Aftermarket does. So when I ordered my Suzuki's oil filter through one of my catalogs it came with one.

So back to the topic at hand.

Isn't it just a bit dishonest to put on a fancy cover with "Oil Filter" lettering.....when there isn't an oil filter behind that cover?

Dave, if it Says oil filter on it, yes..If once upon a time the engine was produced, with a filter,right there, and they changed the design, blanked it off. They need to tell the buyer, before they buy.
My Yamaha 250 /4 wheeler only has a screen, small rocks would go.

Maybe R&D got the go-ahead to design a new filtering system before the block was cast but then lost their budget after assembly (therefore they didn't drill any holes behind the cover)?   Huh

Well,Dave, that is quite similar in appearance to the words
Oil
And
Filter
And positioned so as to give the Impression that lurking Behind that cap, IS a filter, so, I'm gonna hafta get a new pack of stars out and go put Another one in your column.
