Dumb question re oil filters on Safari TD42

Pretty sure for my filter replacement order I'll need 1x Z115 and 1x Z416. Does this sound right? Working on a '91 Safari 4.2 - pix are from the work carpark so I wasn't dressed to get in the engine bay and dirty.

they appear slightly different heights

yea mate they are different. different thread sixe too so you cant get them mixed. Cant remember right now think one is a by pass filter, something like that. some models I believe have two the same but obviously yours dosnt . dont get too hooked up on minor physical length differences as will propably vary between brands.
11 litres of oil mine takes.
I do 10 litres of good brand 15/40 and one bottle of moreys heavy duty oil stabiliser and she's nice and quiet

that is good value, i got a deal like that from the same guy recently, 3 oil filters and 1 fuel filter for my td27 mistral for $45 shipped, cant bet that, a fuel filter at supercheap on its own is $35 lol.
